Description:
Storyteller: Chris Smith
A beloved coat is reused in different ways again and again until it becomes a story.
Chris Smith first heard this story from Roger Cullen and has since heard it told by dozens of storytellers. For a good written version, we recommend you read The Blue Coat in Hugh Lupton's The Story Tree: Tales to Read Aloud (Barefoot Books). We also have a two minute version with the same title.
