Approaching closer, she (Princess) could see seven cloaked
figures,
Then the Sister of the Violet Ray stepped forward to greet Princess. “Come with me, dear one. Let us walk together down the sacred path.” Guided by lunar light, they found their way, taking a turn to the right and a twist to the left. They entered a grove of grandmother trees, the godparents of the forest. Gentle rays of moonlight caressed the countenance of the Violet Sister. Her clairvoyant eyes focused on Princess. “You may call me Onawa. I am the elder of this clan; we are the seven sisters of the rays of rainbow light. I sent for you to meet me here.”

REVIEWS “The Princess of Freedom weaves profound life lessons into a wholesome and delightful tale. From a teacher’s perspective, I see it as literature to stimulate the imagination and creativity of a child. With the proliferation of violence in our society and hard-core social issues given considerable prominence in our schools, it is refreshing to find literature with such a level of innocence carrying so powerful a message.” —Phyllis Blain, Elementary teacher
“Through creative storytelling, Tarra teaches the core fundamentals every child needs to build a healthy foundation of values in a way that is playful, spirited, and adventurous. As a trauma therapist who uses EMDR with children and adults, I believe this book can help my clients identify and heal the wounds of their own childhood trauma.” —Treva R. Rawlings, LCPC, Rawlings Community Counseling
“The Princess of Freedom by Tarra Light is a delightful, inspiring fable for both children and adults. Using the close interchange between Kriya, a typical woman, and her three intelligent, self-aware cats, the story deals poignantly with anger, insecurity, and the need to embrace healing for our world. Kriya and her husband, Tom, adopt a young cat named Tykee the Tiger, and bring him to join their two other cats—Mirabel and Princess. Each cat represents elements of wisdom that Kriya, like all humans, needs to learn to embrace. But Princess is most central to the story. When Kriya receives a hurtful letter from her father, who she has not been close to for years, she is hurled into a journey of self-discovery and letting go in which Princess plays the role of her guide. —Reviewed by Sarah Scheele for Readers' Favorite
Even the trees and flowers would speak to us, if we would only listen. “The way that Tarra tells her stories, one finds oneself quickly immersed in a world where all beings are honored for their natural place in the world. We all can take back the dignity of being responsible for our own power. Her stories teach of taking responsibility for our thoughts, words and actions so that they may reflect the fundamental truth that we are all united. We are encouraged to pay close attention and to open to the guidance that is being offered every day by the natural world and by our own consciousness. After reading The Princess of Freedom, I was (and you will be) left with the sense of the deep trustworthiness of LIFE itself. For children and grown-ups, this book is a direct teaching of openness and innocence.” —Lisa Schumacher, Author of a book of poetry, The Stone I Love.
“The Princess of Freedom is an enchanting, delightful story for children, as well as the young at heart. It is beautifully told, with poetry and lovely pictures interspersed. The message of the book is deeply spiritual, while remaining light and fun. I would urge anyone who loves animals and wants spiritual nourishment to read this sweet book.” —Barbara
Shor, DVM, Animal Communicator, author of SOUL OF THE WILD:
“Tarra Light has crafted a story that speaks with deep wisdom and authority about personal challenges, beliefs, and the power of the awakened heart to overcome anything. The book has an elegant simplicity that can appeal to children and adults. The use of multiple layers of archetypes, most of which are familiar from many common mythologies and legends, is cleverly woven throughout the narrative. I absolutely love the energy of the illustrations, and they complement the story very well. All in all, a real gem of a story...with truth at its center.” —Isaac George, Spiritual and Astrological Counselor/Mentor
