Butterfly Dreams: Delving into China, Cross-Cultural Friendships, and the Environment - Paperback

by Mary E. Klug (Author)

"Get to China before it changes too much," Mary was advised. It was 1982, and China was beginning to transform itself after years of isolation. When Mary, a seasoned Delta flight attendant, arrived in Hangzhou a year later, her life also began a major transformation. China became her passion-at times her nemesis and ultimately her teacher-as she returned year after year, decade after decade. Butterfly Dreams tells the story of how, through years of friendship and exploration, Mary came to discover her life's purpose: working with others, in China and the United States, to create a sustainable and thriving Earth for all.

"Butterfly Dreams is a beautiful example of how one person committed to making a difference with her life-and succeeded."

- Lynne Twist, cofounder of the Pachamama Alliance and author of Living a Committed Life and The Soul of Money

"A testament to the power of dreams, the strength of cross-cultural bonds, and the imperative of ecological consciousness."

-Huang Ming, Solar Valley developer, Dezhou, China
