Publisher's Synopsis
"If you don't know the trees you may be lost in the forest, but if you don't know the stories you may be lost in life." Siberian Elder This book is lovingly dedicated to four amazing storytellers who understand the value of not only telling their own story, but the stories of others who may not have a voice. Thank you to Walter Astrada, the late Hazel Dickens, Tomáseen Foley and Anita Singleton-Prather.Storytelling lives at the heart of human experience - it is a compelling form of personal communication as ancient as language itself. In this complex and diverse world, storytelling survives as a phenomenon that we share in common and from which we can learn valuable life lessons.
