This is a powerful story of choices. We can choose to exist in our life, or we can choose to live our life. One path leads to playing it safe and just existing with the herd, the other path leads to wonder and growth and beauty. The plight of these caterpillars is the story of all of us who are afraid to take chances out of fear of the unknown. Ahhh, but for those brave enough to take that chance, what wonders await us. I am on my own personal growth path, and I am a counselor. This book is required reading for any of my clients who want to start living their life to the fullest.

I am sure this product is of the highest quality, I love the color of the book. The speed that I recived this book was very fast, and the price was very fair. There is only one small isue with this book, It is in Spanish not Enclish, as I do not read or speek Spanish I lay awake nights wondering what I should do with it. Maybe I should move to mexico, as thee are few spanish speeking people here in Alaska where I live.
How is that for a review?????? Maybe you can send me a plack writed in Greek as I don't know that language eather.

Spanish language version of an English language book that has been one of my favorites for years. It is a short, easily read story with profound implications for one's view of modern society and one's value system.
