Book Review - A Must Have for Every Library

Posted on Oct 21st, 2008 by Kris : Messenger of Light Kris

Books, Books, Books - In the world of Kris you just can't have too many of them. 
When my children were young and living at home I made a point of reading almost everything they brought home from school.  First of all I wanted to make sure they were doing the reading so I would read the books and ask them questions - what a mean mother I was... (only sometimes - most of the time it was a way of bonding and connecting)  And secondly I just love books.

A couple of weeks ago I was meandering around our home here at Gaia and came across Jack's profile and fell upon this book titled "The Land of Smaerd".
Smaerd is dreams spelled backwards - how clever is that.  The illustrations were captivating to me... it was if whoever it was who painted these pictures had certainly visited my dreams.  I don't about you but my dream state at times if very mystical, colorful and adventurous.  So as it goes I had to order it. 

Yes it's a children's book... and my point to this is after reading this beautiful story and getting lost in the pictures it reminded me that I had forgotten about some of Kris's dreams... I think sometimes we get all caught up in the day to day, the condition of the world, and a multitude of other distrations that we tend to forget about our dreams and what's important to us. . . I know I do...

When I come across a book that is particularly meaningful I like to share it with my friends and family. And if I can help someone else bring their dreams to fruition in the process it makes it all the better. 

I'm inviting you to check it out:  http://www.TheLandOfSmaerd.com
 
Flight to Smaerd from THE LAND OF SMAERD, 2008

By the way it's Jack's publishing company "Know Wonder Publishing" that made this all a reality.  Hey and wouldn't this make a fabulous gift for someone!

Blessings...

I went to the website and will check it out at the bookstore tomorrow. The colours are absolutely fantastic. You're very quiet my friend. What's  up? Did I write too much, perhaps scare you, or perhaps I'm just way off the mark. Always enjoy chatting with you online but as always I also realize that sometimes we just need space by ourselves.

I bought it last night on Ebay… I can't wait until I have it in my hands!!

I can't wait until I can curl up with my daughters in bed… reading it and talking about the pictures.

Thank you for the recommendation!

Hugs!

I do hope you love this book Susan…  I have a grandson who is 2 years old now and he really likes looking at the pictures in this book.  He wants to carry it around with him because he thinks it's his…  It will be one day he just needs to be a little older.

Much love,
Kris : )

I am so happy I found this as I want to spotlight Jack and the wonderful job he is doing with this book.  This book is priceless and a must for giving as a gift - I promise not to lend out my copy as I know it would not come back.  I will let people know that they can find this through your website http://www.thelandofsmaerd.com/
Thanks for the dreams (moving forward)Kathy
