Why Do People Tell Stories to Each Other?

People tell stories to each other because it helps them remember things, share feelings, and imagine new ideas. Imagine you're a kid sitting around the fire with your family, when someone tells a story, it feels like magic! It’s simple: stories help us connect and pass down knowledge from one person to another.
