I read the Celestine Prophecy in the late nineties, it was on a list of books in a challenge to read the whole list, and I found it total bunkum. I notice from the series of books that the famous nine isights that you needed has now grown to twelve. Anyway this is a picture book based on the whole money making exercise for Redfield and is just as silly as everything else in this world view.

The illustrations almost make this book worthwhile on their own, but you may as well look at them and make up your own story because there's no story to be found in the rhymes. A child named Celestine wanders from one place to the next and we're given some Words of Importance and a moral about how the past is present, but none of these things really seem to mean anything in the context of Celestine's journeys. I guess he does get "home" at the end. The whole thing is kind of just perplexing. I guess it's just a feel-good rhyme?
