Synopsis

48 stories of Brave Sparrows, Wilds Winds and how to live in times of Climate Change. A prize-winning book by the Natural Storyteller, Georgiana Keable, sharing long experience with schools in the forests and snows of Norway. Meet the girl who became a fish, who married a bear, who had a tree as her mum and dad. Meet the boy who tried to stop the wind, who fetched fire from the centre of the earth on the back of a bird and whose father was the river. Meet mountains who have fallen in love and the fun of sharing tales together. From over the world riddles, myths and games for adults and children to learn the art of storytelling. Narrated by Georgiana and her 3 daughters Heid, Ellen and Mari, with a visionary afterword from the famed teller Hugh Lupton. ‘The Natural Storyteller is testament to the grace, mystery and joy that have always animated our human relationships with the earth. The stories in Georgiana Keable’s brilliantly chosen collection welcome us back into that special space and place, in which hearts, minds and spirits know we truly belong.’ Dr Donald Smith, Director of the Scottish Storytelling Centre‘ 'A wonderful and needed resource for children in today’s world.’ Laura Simms, leading US storyteller and author ‘To protect our planet, in this hour of chronic need, we have to completely re-imagine our relationship with the natural world and its wondrous diversity. Storytelling plays a crucial part in that healing process, especially for young people, as Georgiana Keable so beautifully and powerfully reveals in The Natural Storyteller.’  Jonathon Porritt CBE, Forum for the Future '‘The book is life affirming. All of its stories are about taking delight in creation.'  Hugh Lupton, award-winning Storyteller
