"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
