Summary: My personal review of The Silver Boat and the Silver Boat II
Review: I was thoroughly touched by both books and was moved even more into a healing place from which I found strength to deal with my own dragons and all the help from inside to work together through a healing journey. I found that it was ok to have dragons and if one can work together you can get through anything. The books also taught me about a great place that you can go to inside where everything is calm and beautiful and safe where there is blue light, and you can even ride on a dolphin and find lightness of heart while dealing with the most troublesome areas of my life. I found you can create in your mind that great place to go to when things hurt so much, a place all your own. Found that even the most meanest dragons can be beautiful swans. These books helped me be ok with the healing journey I must face in order to become the person I want to be and that it's ok to be scared and confused and sad. I found that I can have fun and have feelings that are good and work on other issues at the same time and rely on my inner strengths to get through even the most troublesome times and find healing at last. The nice thing about these books is how well written they are and easy to understand and to be ok with what you must deal with. Yes while going through the forest there are many dangerous animals and yet you can find strength in the forest as well and beauty. These books helped me to see that and to go through this journey although painful and yet very calming while working together to all become beautiful swans and then you find you all were beautiful swans all along, some needed help to see it that way. The illustrations in these books are so colorful and meaningful.

Review: Sickeningly sweet. My littles need more substance than this. Why do so many authors assume that kids are stupid?

Review: Talking helps. But reading and hearing a story, and looking at wonderful illustrations, and thinking in metaphors and feeling in colors all contribute to getting the message across more fully and deeply, especially to the little ones. This is an uplifting story in it's own right, and a great aid to further understanding and healing.

Summary: My personal review of The Silver Boat and the Silver Boat II
Review: This is the continuation of the journey of the little girl who leaves a land of pain to find a better way of living. Charming new characters are introduced, new insights are found, all in all I found this story to be filled with surprises.You may recall the Dragon who terrified the children in Silver Boat. In a surprising twist, Dragon re-surfaces and the little girl faces the truth of Dragon's personality. An important book for people who may feel stuck in their own journeys. Silver Boat II reminds each of us that the blue light is within, and that there is hope for a safe and better land. The writing story is seamless and in my view meant to be read over and over for new insights and comfort. The quality illustrations delight the eye and comfort the soul. A truly hypnotic experience, in a most positive way. I would love to see this book in the hands of therapists, crisis centers and survivors. For some may be a a difficult read the first time round, but the inherent strength of the blue light shines through. Highly recommend this book to those starting the journey, for those at a cross-roads, and for those who guide our healing.
