"Thanks, Ina for all that you do." Hans Cole, Deputy Director, Roots and Shoots, Jane Goodall Institute

"Do we have to stop reading now?" 7-12 year olds at WOW campfire (national program)

Press Release--Chrystine Julian

"Chrystine Julian's poems carve out a space for themselves...one surprising slice at a time. Even the short pieces are mighty in meaning and insight. From the very few lines that embody a world view of trees to the vulnerability of passion and love, Chrystine manages to touch the heart, and intrigue the mind. I highly recommend her lovely book of poetry, Meandering Mindfulness."
Ruth Light, Women's National Book Association
