Amazing Insight and Thought-Provoking Adages
5 OUT OF 5 STARS
A thought for every day. A little bit of inspiration, a little bit of motivation to push through the difficult times, a little bit of witty humor, and a whole lot of heart. I absolutely loved this compilation of sayings, some of which I printed out and put on my wall! Great volume of wisdom!

A Wonderful Talent
5 OUT OF 5 STARS
This is a book of quotes, poetry and a few short stories for every day of the year. It is divided by months, with each month beginning with a dragon's name, some taken from the author's novels. Each month also begins with a poem including the word dragon, contains poems relating to holidays for that month, and focuses on specific topics. What a wonderful talent to have, that of grouping words together to make such fine poetry.
