This troubling situation led Frances and Allan Kelley to develop Stories to Stir the Imagination, Living Adventures from American History and Living Adventures from the Bible. -Thirty childhood classics, with a total running time of eight hours. Frances Kelley retells these timeless tales in a unique way. Through the magical art of storytelling, Frances stages scenes, creates dialogues, and uses a vast range of voice characterizations. She helped launch the Children's Talking Book Program for the Library of Congress. She has recorded more than 200 books that are distributed all over the country. She also produced and narrated her "Imagination Time" series that was broadcast nation-wide over National Public Radio. For each story, Frances worked closely with Allan, her husband/writer. Allan has adapted and revitalized the stories for dramatic audio presentation, often replacing narration with dialogue to highlight Frances's many voices.
