Illustrations and imagination. Perfect for everyone. To understand complex feeling with drawing. I liked how after it being black and white the reviewer was able to distinguish the feelings of the book. A perfect 5 out of 5.

I like the meat of the book. As we go from children to adults, we tend to lose our childlike curiosity and creativity due to the demands of adulthood. Nancy L Vallette's book seems like a great guide to help readers find their creative spark again.

Figments of Persuasion by Nancy Vallette takes the readers through a nostalgic journey down their childhood memories. It uniquely portrays varied human emotions through mythological creatures. I think we, as adults, have forgotten the innocence and sense of wonder that we had as kids and it's time to rekindle that. Congratulations on the BOTD!

Frankly, from the book title "Field Guide to the Figments of Persuasion" it was different from what I could expect. Well, I fathom the reviewer really enjoyed the book and I trust to experience that too when I read the book. The book communicates how the human mind can create things through imagination. The Author highlights this through arts and pictures; it's impressive. Thanks

I have no recollection of my childhood memories and I believe those are times that are gone; time to create new ones! Field Guide to the Figments of Persuasion" by Nancy L Vallette reminds you of your childhood fantansies which I'd do anything to go back to. Well, this is unique. A great way to bring back happiness and memories once lost.
