Synopsis
My First Monologue Book - 100 Monologues For Young Children
Published by Smith & Kraus
If you've a natural performer in the house, this book provides some simple pieces for auditioning, horsing around, or performing in the living room
Inside you'll find imaginative "what if" pieces for would-be princesses, cowboys, robots, and superheroes as well as real-life issues like unfair bed-times, making new friends, and the horrible taste of broccoli
At this stage in life there are lots of firsts, too, like going to a new school and losing your teeth, so there will be plenty of topics for children to connect with
Often, young children are given work written for older actors that is difficult for them to understand and retain
While not dumbed-down, this material is comprehensible and lots of fun
