Symbolia is a humorous and inspiring story of a brother andsister from our world who journey to the magical world of Symbolia, where theyfind that they must follow the Sacred Path to get back Home. Along the way theyare captured by the Abbo tribe in the MotherLung Rainforest, and later encounter thediapered dictators at the Gulf of Simonsez. Their Path leads them intoKrule City, then on to adventures with theNeggies in the Deep Depression and into Shadow’s Underground Maze to dig forthe Gold of Self-Understanding. It’s a fun adventurestory for children of all ages, a spiritual allegory for adults with ears tohear, and a socio-political satire for those with eyes to see.Comments from readers: 'Themain thing I liked was all the adventures the two children, Luke andLucy, wenton. Each place taught them a lesson. When they were together, theyworked asone. Another thing is it had a lot to do with the real world, like forinstanceGiant Aity Entee (AT&T). There was a great big message, like theRiver ofLyf and all the pollution, or the Morstuffians worshipping at theTemple of theMighty Maul. It’s like a mirror of our own world, with our troops inIraq,looking for oil. But in the story the Giants are taking the oil out oftheMotherLung Rainforest. All I can say is that I loved it! Thank you.' ~Jared Water, Age 11 'Ireally, really liked Symbolia andwanted 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.' ~SolenWillare, Age 12
