World Storytelling Day with Spontaneous Combustion set for March 19

Come to the Menlo Park Library (800 Alma St.) on Wednesday, March 19, 2025 from 6:00 to 7:00 pm to celebrate World Storytelling Day, as Spontaneous Combustion tells stories by Eric Sabelman. Appropriate for age 8 through adult.

Explain storytellers Tom and Sandy Farley: “Our friend Eric Sabelman is a retired bio-medical engineer, story writer of wisdom tales, and occasional teller who moved from Menlo Park to Santa Rosa three years ago. We have several stories by him in our repertoire and on each of our CDs.

“The program will be all from Eric. We’ll start with a kid’s story about an independent princess and then tell some tales from his story cycle about a young man in search of true wisdom.”

World Storytelling Day is an annual, global celebration of the art of oral storytelling, celebrated on the March equinox.
