### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very sweet story
*by L***O on May 15, 2025*

I have loved this book since 1976!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We LOVE this sotry!
*by R***L on December 2, 2024*

We first heard of this story in a sermon at church and figured if it was good enough to be referenced in a sermon by a man we very much admire and trust then we should own it. Our daughter would cry every time we read the story because there is apart that seems like it may turn out very sad. It is a beautiful story about being who God made you to be even if the journey seems difficult and doesn't look the same as many others.WE bought this for my mom, our godson, and my sons godson as well :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Modern Allegory of the Cave
*by M***T on February 7, 2007*

Hope for the Flowers is an amazing story with multiple levels of meaning.Simply put, it's a love story between two caterpillars who become butterflies.But the story is complex. There's a tower reaching so high its top cannot be seen.The tower is made entirely of caterpillars. They step on each other selfishly to reach an unknown destination. Some die in the struggle. To keep going, each caterpillar must become hardened to the others, avoiding even eye contact with those he/she steps on. But two caterpillars connect.They drop out of the race. They fall in love and live in intimacy. But still they think there must be more to life.Curious again about the top, the male caterpillar decides to rejoin the climb. The woman caterpillar is also curious, but knows that climbing isn't the way. While he climbs, she wanders... until she encounters a wise older caterpillar spinning a cocoon. He explains the transformation from being a caterpillar to being a butterfly. She is afraid to give up what she knows, but she risks it.Meanwhile, the man, Stripe, is ruthlessly working for success in the "caterpillar pillar."Just when Stripe reaches the top, he meets his old lover, Yellow, who has now transformed into a gorgeous butterfly with the freedom to fly. Their reunion bursts with a painful love.Without giving away the end (actually the whole second half), I'd just like to point out some of the other levels of meaning:Psychologically, the work is brilliant in its knowledge of the interplay of reason and feelings.Sociologically, its insights penetrate many aspects of human interaction.Theologically, it cuts to the heart of major world religions.I first read this in the Philippines years ago. It was a gift from one of my best friends, a spiritual director at a Catholic, Jesuit college in a historically Muslim area. At 26 she was already nationally known as a counselor and spiritual director. At 24, I was teaching philosophy, which there included introductions to such Asian religions as Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism. Hope for the Flowers has a deep wisdom into the core of these religions, and especially, in my opinion, into the Christian cycle of life, death and resurrection.Why are we here? What is life about? What will make us happy?These are questions that Hope for the Flowers entertains if not answers.For children of all ages.
