Loved It!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I loved this book!!! I received it as a gift and will forever treasure it, not only because I received it from someone who's very special but because it's a book that you can always refer to for inspiration, love and humor.
magical and profound!

This is one of my favorite books--it is simple and childlike and deeply magical at the same time. It is like Winnie the Pooh for adults--or it could be read to children too. I am not sure what happened to this unique and wonderful writer--I sure wish she would write something else! Great bedtime stories to read to yourself or someone you love.
Absolutely charming stories that are good for the soul.

Upon the first read, I was actually disappointed with this book, mainly because it wasn't what I had expected it to be. But I went back to it and fell in love with it. I have read these stories again and again. So simple yet sophisticated. They are gentle, loving, warm, feel good stories that remind you to celebrate the joy of living. I return to this book when I feel down and it always brightens my spirit. It has remained a constant favorite since the early 1990's.
peace & magic

I had the pleasure to work with Andrea Carlisle as a student, and her very sincere personality shines throughout the pages of this book. Lazy LaRue and Pubah dance liltingly and gaze at the world with one another, one foot slightly in reality but always light-heartedly. These are two women who really love their lives, and through deceptively simple description and dialogue (the characters sneak up on you with subtle epiphanies on existence!), you learn to perhaps appreciate your own world more. I do dearly reccomend this well-loved book------ it is peaceful, loving, and a delight.
