In al-Ghazali's work The Revival of Religious Science: Book XXI The Marvels of the Heart he tells a story about polishing one's own heart that is retold by Coleman Barks and paired with Demi's wonderful, detailed illustrations. The story and illustrations form the main portion of the book. For adults and older children, the story is included as it appears in The Marvels of the Heart in the front of the book, as well as a section in the back with excerpts of the Fons Vitae English edition of al-Ghazali's work making this a fun and instructive book for all ages.

As a Demi lover, I continue to marvel at the range of her artistic talent and the many cultures and spiritual traditions she explores. Highly recommended, and thank you Kathy H for this lovely book. -- Jennifer
