Summary:"What you hold in your hands is not a collection of stories. It is a simple, yet revolutionary method to create your own"--
Storytelling help children manage their emotions, empathize with others, and better understand the complex world we live in. More importantly, storytelling cultivates a rich and meaningful bond between storyteller and listener, building intimacy and trust between parent and child. West and Sarosy distill the key ingredients of storytelling into a surprisingly simple method that can make anyone an expert storyteller. Their technique uses events and objects from your child's daily life to strengthen your relationship with your child. -- Adapted from inside front cover.
