Publisher's Synopsis
Explore Advent's "O Antiphons" via a Storyteller's Point of View
In this small book (it's small), professional storyteller Sean Buvala shares 7 stories to accompany the O Antiphon prayers or reflection in personal or communal prayer in the Advent season. As well, there are chapters in the book giving some background to both the stories and to the Antiphons themselves. Please note this is not a book for children but is intended for adults with progressive-Christianity leanings.
A Blend of Unusual Stories
This is a simple project from the heart. Sean has chosen the stories from his own research of fables, folktales and stories he's created working in his previous days in liturgical ministry as well as his experience as a nationally-traveled storyteller since 1986.
Unique Art from Michelle Buvala
Michelle Buvala interprets each story via simple sketch and Scribble art, appropriate for the season of Advent. Like the stories in the book, some of the art is expected and some will surprise you.
Created by a Storytelling ExpertSean Buvala is the founder and director of Storyteller.net, one of the oldest and most complete online resources for all things related to the art and science of oral storytelling. He's been recognized by the "National Storytelling Network" with an Oracle Award for leadership in storytelling. His unique and life-long experience in story performance, ministry and nonprofit- development were used to create these stories.
