Review
A Knock at the Door is a summons to joy, a reminder of our poetic birthright, a message from a place both wildly wondrous and utterly familiar. Angi Sullins and her team of artists and musicians have tapped a stream of perennial wisdom into which the whole world seems to be dipping their cup. --Mirabai Starr, author of The Interior Castle and Dark Night of the Soul
Knock at the door of this book! Over and over for inspiration and reattachment to the magical, mystical elements of life. And once you have remembered this otherly world, use the images and questions as writing prompts or openers into storytelling. It works like a charm. --Christina Baldwin, author of Life's Companion and Storycatcher

Not quite what I expected,

I really LOVE the artwork in this book, and the message.
I had seen the you-tube version and I wanted it. I got the 2009 calendar as well. (The calendar is a little pricey, but beautiful and big.) I guess I didn't realize 1) How small it would be (just a little bigger than a DVD); and, 2) That there is nothing more to it than the you-tube version. No more of a story or anything.., just BEAUTIFUL artwork and nice little fantasy pictures. I know it says the size.., but up close and personal it just loses a lot in this tiny version. If I would have known, I would have only bought a really big version, like a 10x10 or larger.., for a coffee table book. But I do LOVE the artwork and the whimsy.., it just wasn't quite what I was expecting. I like that it came with the DVD, that does make it worth the price, and I think it makes an excellent gift for anyone who likes this type of artwork.

A Treasure of Inspiration,

This review is from: A Knock at the Door - Book with bonus DVD (Hardcover)
I stumbled across this film on the net years ago and was simply taken by it. It is truly magical. I always wanted to own it and watch it on something other than a computer screen. The music, artwork and message are top notch. It seems to dig down deep and finds that little bit of wonder you had as a kid and turns it on again. Nothing mystical or religious in the message, just inspiration with the whimsy of fairy tales. It's not long at all, just a few minutes, but it is a beautiful creation. I think you will enjoy it. The publishers own the Duirwaigh Gallery (Duirwaigh is Gaelic for Doorway). The film originally was called "A Knock on the Duir", which I liked being from Celtic origins. Enjoy!

Book is a bit small in size,

This review is from: A Knock at the Door - Book with bonus DVD (Hardcover)
I really liked the online movie of this so I wanted to share it with my step daughter. I was a little disappointed in the size of the book as I expected it to be regular picture book size. It is small but still a nice and inspiring present. The pictures are a bit different from the online movie but I was aware of that before purchasing it. The dvd is a nice bonus.
