Books with title Animals of Asia

An award-winning author of best-selling metaphysical books, Barbara Y. Martin has turned to her love of animals and their spiritual qualities in her new children's book, Animals of Love: A Book of Children's Poems. On the pages of the large-format book are nineteen individual poems, each with captivating, full-color illustrations. Here is an example of how the poems open a child's mind and heart to lessons and love from the animals: The Smart Dolphin Whenever you see a dolphin swimming happily in the sea, did you ever stop to realize that she s just as smart as we? She has a language all her own, and can communicate with all her other dolphin friends, and also with her mate. And, when she has her babies, do you know what she will do? she'll talk to little dolphins like your mother talks to you. Accompanying each poem is a vibrant, full-page illustration by Philo Barnhart, the world-famous animator known for his unforgettable images in Disney movies such as The Secret of NIMH, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, and more timeless Disney films, toys and books. Along with the Smart Dolphin are myriad delightful creatures, from The Peaceful Swan to The Brave Ant, The Compassionate Elephant, The Wise Owl, The Proud Eagle, The Patient Turtle and more, each with their own poetic story of good character, unique personality, and kindness. Barbara Martin's books have been published in 30 countries spanning two decades and have won numerous awards. Animals of Love is destined for the best seller lists in the category of picture books for children ages 6 to 10. As Martin said, Animals serve the Divine in so many ways, but mainly by the giving of themselves. Children gain strength and support from this miraculous part of nature.
