5.0 out of 5 stars Genius, October 14, 2009
By firstlight (Minnesota, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The ability of these authors to spin a story that is engaging and healing is simply miraculous. I purchased it as a way to tell nice bed time stories that are engaging, creative, constructive and captures the imagination. I hope they write another book full of stories for different occasions. Their metaphors (stories that have an underlying message) like drift wood and blue sparkle were truly amazing. This is not an easy book to read in the sense that it's not glossy or packed with pictures. But if you intend to learn and don't mind going through the process, you will be rewarded many folds for your efforts.
