Description: Professional storyteller Naomi Baltuck has created this anthology of 31 tales and at least as many proverbs from around the world to put that potent tool back into the hands of people who work with people. Not just teachers and librarians and other storytellers, but ministers, therapists, counselors, business speakers, entertainers, and even politicians can find in this book stories for all seasons. There are stories about where stories come from, where they go, and what happens when they take on a life of their own. There are stories about tellers - clever talkers, gossips, liars, braggarts, tellers of tall tales and true - even clams who won't shut up. There are stories to teach, to heal, to excite, to entertain, and to soothe, to instill wisdom, and most of all, for all to be taken to heart.
