The first time he told his stories to a group of children was in 1972, when he was a student teacher at their nursery school. The children liked his stories, so he started telling them more often. He would often take the same story and tell it again and again, changing it a little bit each time, until it got to be really good. Kids liked how loud and animated he was while he told them stories, so he kept doing that, too. This would become his signature storytelling style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEventually, once his stories got really,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003ereally\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003egood, he wrote them down and sent them to a publisher.
