About Symbolia

Symbolia is a humorous and inspiring story of a brother and sister from our world who journey to the magical world of Symbolia, where they find that they must follow the Sacred Path to get back Home. Along the way they are captured by the Abbo tribe in the MotherLung Rainforest, and later encounter the diapered dictators at the Gulf of Simonsez. Their Path leads them into Krule City, then on to adventures with the Neggies in the Deep Depression and into Shadow's Underground Maze to dig for the Gold of Self-Understanding. It's a fun adventure story for children of all ages, a spiritual allegory for adults with ears to hear, and a socio-political satire for those with eyes to see. Comments from readers: "The main thing I liked was all the adventures the two children, Luke and Lucy, went on. Each place taught them a lesson. When they were together, they worked as one. Another thing is it had a lot to do with the real world, like for instance Giant Aity Entee (AT&T). There was a great big message, like the River of Lyf and all the pollution, or the Morstuffians worshipping at the Temple of the Mighty Maul. It's like a mirror of our own world, with our troops in Iraq, looking for oil. But in the story the Giants are taking the oil out of the MotherLung Rainforest. All I can say is that I loved it! Thank you." ~Jared Water, Age 11 "I really, really liked Symbolia and wanted to hear it all after the first chapter." ~Quinna Water, Age 9 "The Harry Potter books are really good, but they don't make me laugh like Symbolia does. It's funny in a serious kind of way." ~Solen Willare, Age 12

Comments from readers:

"The
main thing I liked was all the adventures the two children, Luke and
Lucy, went
on. Each place taught them a lesson. When they were together, they
worked as
one. Another thing is it had a lot to do with the real world, like for
instance
Giant Aity Entee (AT&T). There was a great big message, like the
River of
Lyf and all the pollution, or the Morstuffians worshipping at the
Temple of the
Mighty Maul. It's like a mirror of our own world, with our troops in
Iraq,
looking for oil. But in the story the Giants are taking the oil out of
the
MotherLung Rainforest. All I can say is that I loved it! Thank you."
