This is one of the most refreshing and joyful books that I have experienced for my children in a long time! I loved it so, that I purchased copies for friends, relatives (as gifts), and to donate to my children's school libraries! I will continue to follow this bright and brilliant author to see where the Daisymates travel next!

A spiritual adventure and travel mystery story, filled with seekers, carved men, dirt roads, ancient inn keepers and dark haired beauties with winsome smiles, perched at water's edge, that vanish as quickly as they are recognized. We travel along with Charlie on a hero's journey of self discovery in the search for our authentic self amidst colorful characters, which may or may not be our own voice, plenty of insights and "Aha!" moments, thoughtful and entertaining...

Sitting down to read this book had me transported to a peaceful, sweet place where absolutely anything is possible. The words glide off the pages and into your heart, creating a dance of love, connection and surprise.

It's so easy to forget about the Divine while we navigate through daily life. There's so much going on from sunrise to sunset. These messages speak to the soul and and serve as reminders that love is absolutely all around us, even when forgotten it for a moment. The images are gorgeous, too. I feel as thought I just took a trip around the world!

It is so life affirming paging through this photo book, as it reflects well Bo's wonderful aura and energy in the tranquil expressions of the people, the uniqueness of the places and the caught and released things that indubitably portray a true adventure and a life well spent and undoubtedly well traveled; ooo-saaa, I'm thoroughly uplifted.

All books are not meant for everyone, but for me this was a real joy ride. My take away was to strive to enjoy life to its fullest even with all its craziness and sometimes disappointments.  Along the way if you look you will find beauty, warmth, kindness and compassion--you have to be willing to set aside your fears, losses, prejudices, etc. and the redemptive power of love will come through.  This book in an unusual way  encourages the reader to live life to the fullest and enjoy wine, books, food, friends along the way. Fun,lyrical and somewhat mystical book.

Wow is the title and kick in the pants I needed to discover the treasures we all overlook.
It makes me want to live with more Awe with my God and loved  ones.
I pray to be more grateful to the source of the Wow moments .
Father O'Malley  has me seeing the awe moments with new eyes and thankfulness

This is the book to read if you've ever dealt with the nagging questions of "What am I doing?"; "What brings me joy?"
When Kim and Brian set off on their world journey with no particular agenda, only a sense of purpose to be open to new experiences, the reader tags along.  Both the challenges and rewards of enthusiastically embracing adventure and the unknown made my heart sing.  Along the way, Kim skillfully describes not only colorful and unusual destinations, but the locals she and Brian encounter.  The journey was a celebration of all that is noble about the human spirit, the amazing ways humans are connected, despite the diversity and cultural differences.
The yellow envelope, a gift with its stash of monies to be distributed, is the ribbon threading through each new destination.  It is a reminder that spontaneous and heart-felt giving is, as is often the case, a gift TO the giver.

This book will take you on a sweet and blissful journey into your heart space! Kanta Bosniak's book,&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Love-Poems/dp/1468120069/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Love Poems</a>, is like a rich and decadent dessert...each bite will leave you wanting more. It connects you to the romantic in us all and transcends the realm of human connection to take us on a trip to the sacred space of the Divine. It was reminiscent of the deep and yet still playful ruminations of the Sufi poets that I love so much...Rumi and Hafiz.

I smiled through every page as my heart opened and then melted!

As a pastor's kid, then a pastor's wife for 16 years now living on the mission field, I've lived in the "parsonage" enough to thoroughly feel, enjoy and understand each page of Walking Shoes. With humorous situations, sadness that will tug your heart and small doses of Truth, this book is one to jump into, read and think on for awhile. The last sentence of the book made me smile with knowing... "Living in the parsonage is not for sissies. Lynne pulls us in, helps us laugh, cry and walk the journey together with a cast of characters we'll all relate to. So looking forward to the next part of the story!

Whatever your specific chosen path, anyone with spiritual outlook should relate to the thrill of the experience that this film illustrates. Further, anyone who desires to see the breadth and depth and beauty of the world and all G-d's creatures will surely enjoy traveling along on such an adventure.

The photography is beautiful, the music is lovely, and the narrator charming!

As someone who loves to travel this book reminded me of the beauty, experiences and joy that travel brings to our lives.

While Id rather be exploring 365 days a year, this book takes me out of the monotony of life and brings excitement for memories yet to be made.

If you love traveling you don't want to miss this!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Miss Match.  What a delightful and sensual nourishment for my soul.  Miss Carroll takes the reader on a journey of taste, smell, and sensation, and enables the reader to be present in the moment with each character, as well as lose track of time.  Miss Carroll's style combintes wit and creativity, with a lyrical touch.
I gave myself a wonderful gift when I bought this book! I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to have a magigical adventure for the senses and the soul. Truly enjoyable!

First of all, this book just feels good, literally: In its compact form, with its shiny, beautifully illustrated cover and water-color filled pages, I just wanted to hold and leaf through it over and over again. It's art for the eye and nourishment for the mind and heart.  We all know how "children's books" can be as rewarding for us readers as those we are reading to.  This will be among my (and perhaps your) favorites.  Its joyful, exuberant message is one that I have savored sharing with my young nieces and nephew.  I get chills when I realize that by reading The Star Children, I'm being one of the lucky ones who gets to "race through the meadows and remind [others] to play!"  Yes, the story will stimulate some questions, depending on your listeners' ages, and you will get to choose how to talk about its meaning.  Isn't that part of the magic and beauty of children's books?  The Star Children invites us to welcome others onto our lap, read to them and then share from our heart what is true for us. I wish I could write a review that truly reflects the exquisite beauty of this book.  It's the kind of gift that keeps on giving. (I bought one for me and two for friends!)
