The Wonderful Story Teller Allias H. December 2009 As you all know we had a guest speaker on November 13, 2009 named Sunny Dooley.  Sunny Dooley is a story teller from Navaho Arizona. I think Sunny Dooley is a very nice person.  She is also a very good story teller.  When interviewed Sunny Dooley, I asked her what it is like being a story teller and she said that she likes it and it is very fun to tell story's.  I also asked her many other questions, such as, what is her favorite story to tell?  She does not have a favorite story to tell because she love's all of her stories.  When asked who who inspired her to become a story teller she replied with, 'her mom and grandma helped guide her to this.'  I also asked her about growing up in Arizona and she responded that it was similar to living on the nation we have here.  As a child she liked to climb and play with goats.  Sunny does not schedule story telling...she is always invited to the schools and she never mails out advertisements.  She is very nice and we hope to have her back at ONS someday.
