Literature and Legends, Part 1 (1974) | Sandlapper's Corner

This Sandlapper's Corner takes us to the amazing world of literature and legends. Our cameras accompany a child as he enters a library in search of books on South Carolina's folk tales and legends and a helpful librarian searches for some reading material for him. 

"The First Fire" and "Addie's Plat-Eye" are two of the stories covered in this episode. The narration beautifully follows the illustrations in the books and as the young reader engages in the books, he becomes absorbed in a new adventure.

Sandlapper’s Corner was a children's educational program that began airing on SCETV in the 1970s. Produced by Dr. Sandra G. Thomas, the show was about South Carolina—its people and places, its present and past.
