09/30/08Angela RussellEntering the Land of Dreams
THE LAND OF SMAERD ("dreams" spelled backwards) is a story that mirrors the unfathomable source from
which all of creation emerges and emphasizes the importance of helping children cultivate creative
imagination.

The original story was written by Angela when she was ten years old and recently rewritten in verse by her
sister, Andrea von Botefuhr.

In addition to delighting the senses, it introduces children to a basic understanding of the "unified field" of all possibilities, quantum mechanics as a recreational activity (eliminating boredom), leveraging and directing emotion (energy-in-motion), and the fun and freedom of dreaming beyond limitations.
