Mr. Eric’s tall tales are soooo tall it takes a hot air balloon to get to the very top of them and a parachute to get back down. Students will hear a heaping helping of homegrown classics rooted in American folklore traditions told by the man Paul Bunyan once called the greatest storyteller in the Western hemisphere. It might be stretching the truth a bit but, by the end of the program, you can actually see that students’ imaginations have grown from the size of raisins to the dimensions of a prize-winning Half Moon Bay pumpkin. No fooling.
