Priceless!
The collaboration between renowned author Eckhart Tolle and
illustrator Patrick McDonnell is a match made in heaven. Together
they created a book that is a fun, easy read that was simply delightful.
The illustrations, both beautiful and whimsical, combined with Eckart
Tolle's words are priceless. It is doubtful once you pick this book up
and start reading it, you will be able to put it down.

Another book that's priceless and impossible to put down is titled,
Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment
by award winning authors Ariel & Shya Kane. Check out both of them!

Guardians of Being
We could learn a lot from our pets. Cats can spend hours perfectly relaxed in the warmth of a beam of light. Dogs are always fully present when they play. Cats and dogs live in the moment and are always fully present. They don't doubt themselves or question their value. It is for this reason that they are the Guardians of Being.

Guardians of Being is written by Eckhart Tolle, author of The Power of Now and A New Earth. His words are then accompanied by illustrations by Mutts creator Patrick McDonnell. It's a wonderful combination, creating a comic book look with real meaning. No doubt readers will find a variety of pages that resonate and inspire them.

A Rare Gem
What it is about has already been said. It's also the illustrated beauty and "Power of Now" and in short, delightful beyond words.
