Yvonne Healy is a born storyteller…
when she talks the wind forgets to blow and kids forget to watch TV!

“Yvonne’s an Irish pixie of a performer!”- L’Anse Creuse Senior Citizens, MI

With one foot planted in the old country and the other rooted here, Yvonne tantalizes audiences with world folktales told in an American accent with an Irish lilt. Good-hearted and giddy adaptations of world folklore are spiced with the Irish love of language, inspired by the antics of her outrageous family, and flavored with audience participation.

“Yvonne Healy shares her stories with a clear, pure voice that is full of wonder and animation.” - Hearsay Magazine, Connecticut Storytelling Center

author: Linda Goodman
You can’t hear this refreshing CD without realizing that the stories are being told by a Master. Yvonne Healy shares her stories with a clear, pure voice that is full of wonder and animation. Her distinctive character voices and her skillful use of the dramatic pause hold us under a spell. We don’t want to miss a single word. Children will enjoy this recording for its entertaining and lively style. Adults will see their own experiences in a different light as they listen to these tales. There is something for everyone here. Yvonne Healy holds the listener in the palm of her hands. Don’t miss this magical journey. - excerpt from Hearsay Magazine, 5/2005
