About Dancing With Wonder:
Stories that both reveal and heal have been passed down from generation to
generation. For example, history books reflect a rich fabric
of stories that have been woven into the centuries. In Dancing
with Wonder, Nancy King shares poignant examples and
inspirational stories from around the globe—while helping
readers use these stories for their own growth, understanding
and self discovery.
Through
exercises and activities, readers find their own way
into the stories that live inside each and every one of us, and
within our societies. This empowering story-making method,
using our environment, family, and friends, can significantly
contribute to our sense of our own identity. Ideal for
reading with family, friends, or a reading group, Nancy King’s
book will bring about startling insights; foster creativity; and
reveal important clues about what is going on, in and around us
every day.

Reviews:
“Dancing
with Wonder
is a beautiful revelation of the healing stories that wait to be
told within each one of us. I know of no one else who has worked
with stories in this way--as a spontaneous gift emerging from the
individual soul, bringing healing and renewal to the teller and the
listeners.”
-David L. Hart, Ph.D., Jungian Analyst and author of
The Water of Life: Spiritual Renewal in the Fairy Tale
(Lanham, MD:
University Press of America, 2001)
“The wizardry of
this book lies in its brilliant stories and its fascinating
narrative about how these stories have healed listeners. Nancy King
is a master story teller. In this book she has revealed not only
the sources and power of stories, but also the key to using them to
unlock strength, wisdom, and creativity.”
-Jeanne Murray
