First attempt to tell a story in Scratch

We will be using Scratch, an innovative program from MIT for creating interactive games and stories, in our Interactive Journalism camp for middle schoolers this summer, so I spent this weekend putting together my first interactive story using the software. I used a couple of sprites provided by the the software, and made backgrounds and additional sprites from my son's cameraphone images. I'll attempt a story with live sound next, and then see whether I can use Scratch for a portion of the Nancybelle project.
