I first came across 'Water Bugs and
Dragonflies' when it was read at a funeral I attended. I thought it so
beautifully explained death to children that I immediately bought several copies
and gave them to friends.
It's a tender tale of death and new
life. This mini-book uses the symbol of one water bug, climbing a stalk to turn
into a dragonfly, never to return.
This gift edition features
enchanting full-color paintings by Gloria Ortiz Hernandez, an artist whose work
has been exhibited in Europe, South America and the United States. A native of
Columbia, she currently lives and creates her work on a farm in Pennsylvania.
This hardback edition measures 4¼"
x 6¼"
Book comes package with a beautiful
pewter heart engraved with a dragonfly and the word 'transformation'.
