Children, just like their parents and teachers, are narrative-driven. They love identifying with characters, being captivated by an intriguing story and engaging in a world full of mystery and adventure. The greater and more expansive the story, the more engaged they become. The fruits of this immersion in a grand narrative is a thirst to know more; to explore beyond the world around themselves.
