The story’s magic and landscape stayed with her for months before she began writing. Folktales, like that of the snow child, and storytelling are an important part of the traditions of cultures the world over. Terry Krueger, a literature instructor at COCC, explores the significance—and the magic—of folklore and why it’s an important part of our lives.
