About this title

Synopsis

Facing adversity is a part of life. It is up to those challenged as to how these obstacles will impact their lives. In a highly personal new book, Learning to Dance With the Dragonfly: Healing Lessons of Nature, Holly N. Fordyce describes her own journey through dealing with the devastating diagnosis of breast cancer. The result is a remarkably inspiring collection of poems, photographs, journal entries, and essays that is at the same time highly emotional, yet infinitely comforting. It is evident the exploration and immersion in the dark produced much light for the author.
