Irma is a spiritual story about the animals who live in the Valley Below the Mountain, where they coexist in symbiosis-in mutual interaction and understanding without prejudice. Irma is an earthworm who, despite her tiny stature, leaves a deep mark on her spiritual journey and also on the lives of everyone involved.The human soul enters the narrative indirectly, introduced as the "Non-Animal" facing their own life trials, limitations, and social pressures, and whose identity is revealed as the story culminates. Irma, throughout her journey among all the animals in the Valley Below the Mountain, learns how the Kingdom of Nature symbolizes the unbounded authenticity of and connection to the Universe. With their kind and humorous interactions, the animals demonstrate spiritual and moral concepts through greater empathy and benevolence in contrast to the dogmatic and often unforgiving world of the Non-Animals. The animals lovingly broach and discuss important issues concerning diverse and controversial topics of the human world, which they gradually learn are closer to their own lives than they originally thought. Simultaneously and unwittingly, they guide the reader to tap into the most precious inner wellspring of all beings: intuition.
