This practice highlights the importance of storytelling as a self-knowledge tool for developing kind treatment and well-being in young children. The study was carried out in a rural elementary school in Huitzilac, Morelos, Mexico. A qualitative and empirical action research method was used, through drawings and repetition of parts of the story to assess comprehension and retention of information and identify conflicts. The findings indicated that the methodology has a positive effect on reading comprehension in girls and boys, as well as on resilience possibilities in the face of psychosocial problems. The importance of teachers incorporating it into their daily practice to further develop creativity, reading comprehension, and to foster resilient processes was emphasized.
