Such a great lesson! This book is not only inspirational, it speaks truth. All of the people who went up with Jenny were so focused on their own selfish gain that they didn't even stop to enjoy the beauty in everything. Jenny, on the other hand, chose to acknowledge the worth in what she found. She paid attention to the detailed handiwork all around her, instead of looking for a quick answer to an easy life.

Such a great lesson! This book is not only inspirational, it speaks truth. All of the people who went up with Jenny were so focused on their own selfish gain that they didn't even stop to enjoy the beauty in everything. Jenny, on the other hand, chose to acknowledge the worth in what she found. She paid attention to the detailed handiwork all around her, instead of looking for a quick answer to an easy life. In the end, it was she who, by accident, discovered what everyone else had been so impatiently searching for. This book is a very good parallel to the way we seem to search for wisdom in the real world. We want wisdom, we want it now, and we don't want to give up anything to get it. We don't like it when life is not immediate, which is unfortunate because the greatest things in life most always take patience. If wisdom was easily obtained, it would not be cherished. Wisdom is left for those who truly wish to be wise, who are willing to take the time to search with their hearts. And this book captured that beautifully. Also, the illustrations are magnificently detailed and full of color.
