Where Wishes Still come True
Where Wishes Still Come True is a mythic tale created by Michael Mendizza for children of all ages. The experience of listening to these stories provides an antidote to the harm which results from excessive exposure to television and computer imagery. If "a picture is worth a thousand words," then every picture replaces the need for a thousand descriptive words. It is the descriptive power of words, the ability to create mental images, that affects the developing brain. Replace descriptive narrative with concrete pictures and you deprive that developing brain of critical nutrients for later forms of critical and creative thinking.
