How fortunate we are that Caroline decided to retrieve The Dance of
the Caterpillars from its 1980's hiding place in the filing
cabinet. How grateful we are that Fisher called to her. How
thankful we are that we are able to receive the message of hope
across the decades from this very special fourth-grader in our
world of increasing disconnectedness from ourselves and each other
and from our rightful place in the natural world. Fisher reminds us
there is some Fisher in all of us: a longing to belong. The Dance
takes me to the space between The Wizard of Oz and Where the Wild
Things Are, a step closer to the journey home, the journey to the
undivided life. Fisher makes me think of a slightly older version
of Max from Wild Things, growing up in a deforming world, yet still
able to hold onto to that birthright ability to see, to hear, to
connect. Fisher reminds me that I still have that birthright, too,
and it's not too late for me to notice and nurture the magic and
the mystery, inside and out. Fisher's voice reads like poetry, and
I find myself letting go of learned restraints as I get caught up
in The Dance. Caroline writes of The Dance that it is her sweetest
of her books... This one will be cherished by readers of all ages.
