Allie has just finished her amazing story telling session with my Year 0-1 class. The children were captivated throughout and just loved using their imagination to Allie's fabulous stories. The puppets were a big hit, (I also loved the hand painted skirt and boots!!!), and I found myself absorbed into "what was going to happen next?" Allie's stories were pitched well for five year olds and I know all 16 pupils have all gone home today to tell their families about our wonderful afternoon. - Vivienne

Pre-school Visits

Last year I was able to take Allie to several of the centres that I visit in my role as Youth Outreach Coordinator for Dunedin Public Libraries. The children were excited, entranced and engaged with Allie and her stories. They just loved the puppets and her use of musical instruments. I know the visits were appreciated by the teachers and children alike. I was very happy to be part of the audience. - Su Ikin, Youth Outreach Coordinator, Dunedin Public Libraries.

Allie's storytelling is absolutely captivating and her accompanying artwork is beautiful! She is a pleasure to work with and we look forward to collaborating on more projects in the future. - The New Zealand Sea Lion Trust

Through her unique approach to exploring Celtic and traditional tales, Allie has developed a repertoire of stories which both delight and educate audiences young and old. Not only this, but Allie has brought her own creative, original tales to our village, stories which transport the listener from the depths of the ocean to the deep New Zealand bush. Often accompanied by her own art pieces, Allie’s stories have the power to enthrall the audiences whom she entertains.
