Based on the award-winning Children's Spirit Animal Cards, teacher and author Dr. Steven D. Farmer makes the magical realm of animals come alive with Children's Spirit Animal Stories Volume II. Some of civilization's earliest records reveal humankind's need to communicate important messages through stories about animals. We have marveled at animal power, been humbled by their innate beauty and intrigued with their abilities. Animals demonstrate a truthful simplicity that we sometimes forget as we grow older and our world becomes more complicated. But our connection with nature can be restored as we listen to the inner voice that guides us and the life force that beats in all living things.
