Becoming Me: A Story of Creation

Bravo! This beautiful and simple book is wonderful for both kids and adults. The reader is left with a renewed sense of hope and wonder. The broad and colorful illustrations wed with the haiku-like simplicity of a very timely message about discovering yourself. Whether the reader knows Deepak Chopra or Dilbert, they will be touched by the ubiquitous truth of this story.

'the book with all the colours' (2/2 people found this helpful)

I gave this book to my favourite 6 year old, who loves it. He calls it 'the book with all the colours' and asks for it regularly for reading at bedtime, and greatly enjoys looking at the pictures - as do I, they are beautiful - and explaining the story to me. I would highly recommend it.

I must firstly admit I know Marty. I knew nothing of this book however. I ordered out of curiosity and wonderment. The single biggest suprise was that it appeared to be a childrens book. I expected it to be a story of Marty's personal journey, it is (to me). Imagine squeezing all your joy angst and love into a dozen pages and such few words and losing not a drop. Distilled down to the stature of a children's book ... very Zen! A modern parable of the journey of birth-death-rebirth which we all take in life, told for children, or was it? How do we prepare kids for this journey, they are already on.... start with this book! Of course YOU have to do the telling, as with all kids books.

The most delightful rewards of this book is that I can read it in seconds - for me a great refresher! and most important of all it is a wonderful contemporary fable of an ancient passage of rites.

With this book Marty has given me a medium with which I have already begun to tell my own story, and their own story, to my four children. If you want to talk to your kids about Oneness, Self, AllThatIs, etc .... here is a unique and wonderful tool. The illustrations capture the emotions of real life ... no fairy tale illusions here. We get it as our kids see it!

A book for the mind of the child and the heart of the adult. (3/3 people found this helpful)

This book renders the most profound theme - the extent to which each one of us is uniquely loved by the Divine - accessible to the mind of a child and to the heart of an adult. It is remarkable for its depth through pure simplicity. A person with a sensitivity to that which is greater, will find great consolation in the beauty and clarity of this work.

We received this book as a present for our child and have given it as a gift to other parents and children since. The words, and the images upon which they rest, evoke tears because their union expresses the love of the One that is in our being and becoming.

A Very Stange, Confusing Book (1/6 people found this helpful)

This book was so perculiar that I had to send it back! Several of my friends have read it and have concluded that it could be about anything... The illustrations are not clear pictures, but are colourful swirls which can sometimes resemble actual things. It would be a very confusing book for my 2 year old son, and it cannot see it being enjoyed by him when he is older either.
