This is a book about storytelling from the author of the Lion Storyteller Bible. However, the 104 stories in this book are for adults. Each story includes an introduction, ‘telling tips’, and discussion questions. The book is easy to use, clearly printed (useful when reading aloud from a dark dais!) and arranged by Bible passage.
The book is summed up by a quote from Pete Meadows: ‘Bob Hartman is to storytelling what David Beckham is to football. An absolute master. Give him a story and no one will bend it like him.’
