Cumulative stories are rhythmic stories with a narration that builds upon itself, adding on and repeating previous information. In cumulative stories, all previous events are repeated when a new event happens.

Rhyme

Cadence 


So What Are The Rules to a Cumulative Tale?  ←source

  • A cumulative tale can rhyme, or not. Your choice.

  • The prose must be tight, simple and not too difficult to read aloud.

  • It should NOT  be a tongue twister. It should feel like you can sing the story.

  • The characters are certain classic types, and they’re flat and static. They should not feel real.

  • The story is more about a theme than character. Theme is key.
