The Surprise in Your Eyes:
A Little Tale of Human Communion

a book by Stillpoint's own Ernie Tamminga

When you look up at the stars, what you see is light that has been traveling across the galaxy for a long, long time to reach you right here, right now.

When you look into someone's eyes, what you see is the light of self-awareness, traveling across billions of years of evolution to reach you right here, right now.
"The Surprise in Your Eyes" is an eminently accessible, visual interpretation of that experience. The book is a series of 17 full-color plates, with rhyming text on each page, printed on very high-quality paper. The book comes with a free DVD, containing a narrated and animated version of the book, complete with music.

You can watch the video-version for free, by clicking here
