More DescriptionThis powerful little book combines the science of storytelling with a step-by-step method for parents, grandparents, educators, and anyone interested in a lasting relationship with children. Storytelling is as old as cave paintings and as modern as blockbuster movies. What we now know from many evolutionary theorists, neurologists, psychologists, and academics is that storytelling is not just for fun. It is a cognitive tool humans evolved to share information, retain attention, and build trust.

It is a book to help you build relationships.
