- Book Synopsis
- <p><em>Finding the Lost Art of Family Storytelling: A Guide for Parents, Grandparents, and Family Historians</em> is a response to all the challenges for families raising kids in this generation. Experts tell us <strong><em>what to do</em></strong> in order to be the best we can be for our kids. Joe Jekot tells us <strong><em>who to be</em></strong>--<strong>ourselves</strong>. He is of the belief that storytelling is at the center of all aspects of family life and the formation of personal and communal identity. A good story told in the right way and at the right time can change the direction of a young person's life for the better. This guide empowers family storytellers to weave the tales that will allow young people to grow into purpose-driven and happy adults. Joe teaches a simple four-step process by which a person can take any significant experience of life and transform it into a powerful story. The guide includes more than seventy story prompts and reflection questions that will draw out the hidden tales just waiting to be told.</p><p><strong>Joe Jekot </strong>has a B.A. in Theology and M.Ed. in Community Counseling from the Loyola University of Chicago. He is a certified parent effectiveness trainer and has completed a certificate in narrative healing. He is an active member of the National Storytelling Network, the Northlands Storytelling Network, and Illinois Storytelling Inc.</p><p>For more information on<br> Joe Jekot's retreats, seminars, <br> and performances, contact him<br> at <strong> www.joejekot.com. </strong></p>
