Flores Girl The Children God Forgot

From the headlines of today comes the ultimate adventure story of discovery. Two scientists unwittingly introduce a small tribe of prehistoric people living in isolation for a half million years to the ultimate modern predator: humanity. This is their adventure combining a clash of cultures, religious ardor with the oldest stories of all: the meaning of friendship and love. The two scientists, Sarah and Richard discover the existence of a living human ancestor, Homo floresiensis on an isolated tropical island. These small Hobbit-like creatures are not the Hobbits of JRR Tolkien¿s stories, but a small tribe of prehistoric people living in seeming isolation for nearly a half million years on the Indonesian island of Irmã Flores. In their unrelenting quest for knowledge, Sarah and Richard unintentionally expose these innocents to the onslaught of the modern world including corporate raiders, Indonesian pirates and religious zealots. In the process of discovery and befriending these ancient people, Sarah and Richard rediscover their own humanity and the opportunity to find true love. This as a rousing adventure book with serious undertones about our very definition of humanity, and how we treat the other sentient creatures that occupy our small planet. What is at the core of being human, and how are we systematically destroying those very same qualities that we hold so dear?

"A woman's guide to achieve self-contentment and inner peace.""A book that will empower women, boost their self-esteem and help fight against negativity and depression.""God created you truly valuable and special. The true beauty in you will eventually unfold. You are, indeed, a beautiful creature and this book will tell you why." "A good read also for men who want to see the beauty of life, which they might not have noticed or just had taken for granted before."Flores Isler has always loved to read which was her motivation to pursue a writing career. She authored more than thirty published romance pocketbooks and few horror/thriller stories under the pseudonym of Kathleen Guiller. She then became an advocate of self-empowerment, especially for women and this became her life purpose, so she shifted to writing inspirational books, which also opened the door for her to be a life coach. Isler describes herself as a simple person, who believes that life is happier if you live simpler. In this book, Isler brings her wisdom to teach people and especially women how to unlock the real sources of empowerment. Once we embrace our flaws and believe in our inner beauty regardless of our outer appearances, we can begin to find the confidence and courage that will help us have high self-esteem and live a happy and contented life. Isler makes the argument that our unique beauty is a gift to the world and can make it a better place to live in if we learn how to unleash the beauty within us. As she writes, "Beauty is a state of the mind, not a state of the body." Isler advises us to use self-acceptance and the belief that we are beautiful creatures, as a tool, to be the best version of ourselves that we all yearn for.
