The Teachers' Lounge
Summary
The Teachers' Lounge is Bill Harley's newest spoken word recording: a collection of hilarious and dead-on observations about life in elementary school. On this latest recording, two richly detailed and plotted stories of his school experiences ("The Teachers' Lounge" and "The Science Fair") are coupled with three poems. But are the stories true? "Hmmm," Harley says. "Well, it says they are on the title. In my storytelling, I try not to let historical accuracy get in the way of honesty. All the stories and poems ARE audience tested," he notes.

Dinosaurs Never Say Please and Other Stories
Summary
If you were big and ugly, had a ton of sharp teeth, and a truly enormous appetite, you wouldn't need the "magic word" either! These stories for kids, from acclaimed storytelling songster Bill Harley, center around the theme of being small. Included are "Dinosaurs Never Say Please," about a Tyrannosaurus and "Master of All Masters," a traditional story Harley found in a book by one of his heroes, Joseph Jacobs. These selections are two of Harley's favorites for kids in kindergarten through 3rd grade - but you'll find them delightful at any age.
