This review is from: Turtles into Butterflies (Hardcover)
Turtles into Butterflies is a marvelous tale for children and adults alike. Turtle is an inspiration to us all, overcoming self-doubt and finding self-love. This book teaches children to accept themselves in spite of their differences with others. It teaches children that they can appreciate the qualities of others without having to give up who they are to become someone they're not. It is a helpful reminder for adults that we should be ourselves and teach our children their value through our own living examples. This book is filled with lovely illustrations and exciting adventures as turtle learns that he is beautiful. This book also teaches the value of friendship. It is important for kids to learn that sometimes friendship entails uplifting our friends when they are feeling down. I am grateful to Dane for writing a book that teaches children the value of self-love in a fun, creative and adventurous way.

This review is from: Turtles into Butterflies (Hardcover)
This book is a marvelous tale for children and adults alike. Turtle serves as an inspiration to us all, overcoming self-doubt and finding self-love, a notion we certainly want our children to learn. It teaches children that they can be proud of who they are in spite of their differences with each other. It teaches children that they can appreciate the qualities of others while loving themselves, that they do not have to give up who they are to try to be someone they're not. It is an excellent story for adults as well, reminding us to be ourselves and to teach our children through our own living examples. This book is filled with lovely illustrations and exciting adventures as turtle discovers that he is beautiful. This book also teaches the value of frienship, demonstrating that butterfly is a true friend by helping turtle see his beauty. It is important for kids to learn that friendship sometimes entails uplifting our friends when they are feeling down. I am grateful to Dane for writing a book that teaches children the value of self-love in a fun, creative and adventurous way.

This book is awesome. My kids totally loved it and they want me to read it to them over and over again. The book is not long which makes it easy to read to my kids before they go to bed repeatedly. I'd recommend it to anyone whose got children. Jorento is a gifted writer of children's books.

5.0 out of 5 stars CAPTIVATINGLY IMAGINATIVE, January 21, 2002
By 
DEBORAH JORE (DUNBARTON, NH United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Turtles into Butterflies (Hardcover)
My 7 year old daughter and 5 year old son love this book! It is wonderfully imaginative and makes one think of folklore and legends passed down. The books illustrations are first rate and not just the run of the mill primary colored pictures seen in other childrens books. I think children ages 2 through 12 would really enjoy! My kids cannot wait to find a turtle now this spring and that is what reading it all about! We anxiously await more from this talented author.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Delightful Book, January 21, 2002
By 
M. Greene (Bellerose, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Turtles into Butterflies (Hardcover)
We enjoyed the book very much. It's a refreshing tale of perseverance and belief in oneself told in a sweet and dramatic fashion. Our 6 year old son really liked how the turtle took off his shell to fly. I was surprised to find that turtles and butterflies were so similar!
