This book made me want turn into a leaf and have some processing time. It is written more like a poem. I loved the metaphors of bear, bird, and fish.

The first part of this book delighted me so thoroughly that I kept reading passages aloud to whoever was around but to be honest I... couldn't make it through the tree part. Anyone else find this?

I liked two pages in this book. The description of a watermelon tourmaline and the anti-relocating to mars sentiment.

The rest was an emperors new clothes romp.
