Wonderful Life of a Fly Who Couldn't Fly

Once upon a time there was a young fly born without wings. Could she truly be called a "fly?" Wouldn't it be better to term her a "sit" or a "walk?" Or maybe even a "stone?""And she sobbed and sobbed, like no fly ever had.'Dear daughter, ' said her mother, 'I know you feel bad.But wings are not everything, they're just two little parts.You've got a good mind, you've got a good heart."'And the Great Mother of Life does not make mistakes.Even when it looks like we've gotten bad breaks.Life is much more than flying, I promise you, dear.Give up your sadness, and give up your fear.'"Follow the fly as she walks through her life, tasting the delicious bits the flying flies miss, learning to dance as well as to sing, finding most fully the joy that life brings.-- Beth Stover's jewel-like watercolor with acrylic illustrations brilliantly evoke the wonder and vibrancy of the fly's world-- The first children's book from spiritual activist and author Bo Lozoff-- A warm and empathic fable about transforming life's setbacks that will move readers of all agesLozoff, Bo is the author of 'Wonderful Life of a Fly Who Couldn't Fly', published 2002 under ISBN 9781571742865 and ISBN 1571742867.
