Storytelling is the original teaching tool. Long before there was formal schooling grandparents and parents there were stories. These stories provided children in the community with the knowledge base they needed to survive as an adult.

Yet, we still know how a powerful story can capture out attention, fire our imagination, and make clear a difficult idea or concept.
