In An Open Book is a Mind about to Soar, Danielle Sainte-Marie offers up poetry and short stories for young adults, primarily ages 8-13. Sharing this book with your loved ones is a great way to introduce them to complex phrasing, challenging words, and metaphorical ideas. This book teaches: 1. The importance of finding your talents and interests and pursuing them. 2. Learning to see life with a renewed interest and wonder. 3. Celebrating love and acknowledging the feelings of one's first teenage 'crush.' 4. How to utilize perspective to see any situation as you wish. 5. The importance of having fun and being a bit silly at times. This is reflected in a 'nonsense' poem I included. 6. The big question of death is dealt with; the book teaches that without death there is no life, and that we are all part of one big ecosystem, and so, it is what it is and we must go on--hopefully, with a smile.

Delving into her traumatic past with intense, thoughtful, free-ranging and sometimes classic, poetic verse, Danielle Sainte-Marie lays bare the deepest, darkest parts of her soul in this timeless collection that, she says, is "Just the tip of the iceberg of my pain...there's a lot more to come." If you are queasy, easily offended, or not ready to face your own fears and traumas, do not buy this poetry book! It is only intended for a select crowd of those rare few whom embrace the dark in order to bask in the light. "Feelings unexplored and unexpressed largely create your viewpoint of the world; if you are not keeping your feelings current by expressing them when they arise, then that means you are never living in the moment. Rather, you are living in a world where your feelings are always trying to catch up to your current reality; thus, you live in past hurts that were not revealed in a timely manner."

What is the silent syllable? The silent syllable is the silence that allows each new letter, word, or sentence to come into being. It is the invisible support to the visible world. In Buddhism, the monks that chant "Aum" recognize the silence at the end as a necessary part of the word, or chant, to bring about the next Aum. The silence is integral, and thus, part of the word. It is just hidden to those uninitiated in such Oriental philosophies. This book of poetry seeks to find the hidden things in our lives that often go unrepresented or unnoticed, and to initiate the reader into them. And then, hopefully, the reader will find that hidden place within that supports all that they truly are, and all they have ever been.
