Fun, beau­ti­ful, engaging.…a great book to read to lit­tle ones!”   Jack Korn­field author of “A Path With Heart”

My daugh­ter received this book as a gift & repeat­edly asks for us to read it. The book is a great opener for dis­cus­sions about meta­mor­pho­sis– as well as fol­low­ing your dreams! With lovely illus­tra­tions and a great sto­ry­line, it’s def­i­nitely a keeper.” Izzy’s Mom

Lillibit’s Dream is a mag­i­cal story chil­dren will know in their hearts to be true. The deep mys­tery of let­ting go in order to be born anew is told in a tale that will have them gig­gling while absolutely entranced, with beau­ti­ful illus­tra­tions that speak to their soul. A won­der­ful col­lab­o­ra­tion. Give a copy to every child you know! Chris M. Bache Father of three and author of “Dark Night, Early Dawn”

I gave this book to four chil­dren for Christ­mas. Each one of them enjoyed it immensely. For two of the lit­tle girls (3.5 yrs and 5 yrs) it was their favorite Christ­mas present and by request their par­ents read the book to them over and over. The illus­tra­tions are gor­geous and its heart-felt story reminds us to dream and that change can be won­der­ful. Addi­tion­ally, the process of the meta­mor­pho­sis from the cater­pil­lar to a but­ter­fly is sci­en­tif­i­cally cor­rect which adds a nice layer of learn­ing to this great story.” Dr. Karen Eiler

A won­der­ful, heart-felt story and delight­ful pic­tures really bring Lil­li­bit and her friends to life — and to rebirth. Sev­eral chil­dren I know love the story and ask for re-readings. But it’s also a plea­sure (and collector’s item) for adults inter­ested in trans­for­ma­tion, with the death/rebirth metaphor and charm­ing pic­tures by Stanislav Grof… Highly rec­om­mended!” Cary Sparks author of “Incensed”

Author Melody Sul­li­van brings a fresh per­spec­tive to that well-known sym­bol of metamorphosis–the butterfly–in her trans­for­ma­tional tale of Lil­li­bit the cater­pil­lar.  Lillibit’s story is told with a unique blend of nat­ural real­ism and won­drous whimsy, enhanced by the mag­i­cal illus­tra­tions of Stanislav Grof.  “Lillibit’s Dream” encour­ages bereaved chil­dren to dream their own dream of tran­scen­dence as they jour­ney through loss and change.” ~Roberta Rook, Bereave­ment Pro­gram Coor­di­na­tor for The Life Cen­ter at Hos­pice of the Chesapeake

An alle­gory of our trans­for­ma­tional process as indi­vid­u­als. Inspi­ra­tional for read­ers of all ages. Won­der­ful and imag­i­na­tive.” Rick Doblin MAPS

Melody Sullivan’s charm­ing children’s tale is beau­ti­fully enriched by Stanislav Grof’s Seuss-like draw­ings of a cater­pil­lar who begins its dreams reclin­ing on (sur­prise!) a spot­ted mush­room.”  Michael Harner, Founder of The Foun­da­tion for Shamanic Studies
