"I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming." — Goethe

I really enjoyed this but wish they had left out the bedroom scene. I think the same effect could have been accomplished with that page and a half. It was a very interesting twist and a fun love story. ]]>

3.5 stars actually. This was a very nice retelling of the 12 dancing princesses fairy tale. I have read this tale in various forms many, many times as it was one of my oldest daughters favorite books. I like Jessica Day George's version of the story as it all fits together quite nicely. It was a little slow starting, it could have used a little more editing there but overall I enjoyed the read. ]]>

Nope it's mine. My sister gave it to me as a belated birthday present.

"Looking forward to reading through all of this. So far it's a lot of encouragement that anyone can be an artist. Love that."

This third and kinda final book in the series was an interesting way to pull everything together from the first two books. I enjoyed reading the book but was a little disappointed with the cheesy ending. ]]>
