What do sparks from lightning bugs, trying to outrun a storm, and having your lawn "forked" have in common? Each is the basis for a memorable story.
Stories don't just entertain us-they connect us. From pain and grief to parenting humor and workplace shenanigans, our shared experiences help us forge stronger family relationships and connections with those around us. Our stories make us human.
In Sparks from Lightning Bugs, author and storyteller Richard Howerton chronicles pivotal leadership experiences, funny short stories from the road, and unforgettable family activities. You'll witness good parenting advice, bad translations, and hilarious cross-cultural and cross-generational misadventures. And, like Howerton, you'll learn valuable lessons along the way, including:
Why you should never leave home without a shovel Important parenting tips for handling an ill-timed penis joke Why American travel is one of the best recipes for making memories with family Why friends and food fights don't mix How storytelling and leadership can facilitate growth and connection
Sometimes somber, frequently absurd, always poignant, the stories in Sparks from Lightning Bugs will fill you with joy, heartache, and hope. They'll make you laugh, cry, question your assumptions, wish you were there, and be grateful you weren't. And, Howerton hopes, they may even spark you to share your own stories.
