The Giving Secret

The Giving Secret is a story about the power of relationships and imagination for older children, precocious younger children, and, in classic mode, young-hearted adults. It is a book of understated wisdom that exposes the apparent contradiction between emotional and artistic truths and logical conclusions or mathematical facts. The book is written in open verse, constantly haunted by the traditional form of iambic pentameter and rhyme. An appendix, containing an actual letter from the author's daughter, attests that this is indeed a true story.
