ADVANCED PRAISE FOR TRUE FEATHERS "I just finished reading True Feathers and for all those humble warriors, who faced dangers to protect country, family, and friends, it is food for your soul. Follow Coo on her journey of healing hope as she finds meaning in her service and purpose for her life. By examining the sharp contrast of human suffering and joy, we can learn to embrace each day as a gift with gratitude. Even if you're not a veteran, this book teaches us we all have our own journey, but we can choose kindness and acceptance when we walk together. True Feathers is a MUST READ for all veterans and those who hold them close."

A story of courage and acceptance. This will touch your heart." Sophie Orchard Author of The Raven Descends "True Feathers is a gift to warriors reflecting on their journey, navigating transition, and charting a new flight path. Readers will identify with the main character, Coo, as she learns about acceptance, overcoming fear, forgiveness, self-empowerment, and more. Thank you Carolyn Patrick for inspiring us all to dive deep and soar high through the lens of Nature, one of our greatest teachers." Susan Pualani Alden Army Veteran and Co-Founder, Mind Body Aloha "Carolyn Patrick tells the powerful story of how intergenerational trauma expresses itself, how devastating it can be, and ultimately how redemptive forgiveness is for ourselves, as well as past and future generations. The writing is beautifully crafted and the illustrations expand the themes. Our suffering world needs powerful stories to guide us into insight, hope and healing. This book is a balm."
