Laugh, cry and muse over Winegar's unique perspective as you travel along through culture shock, jungle vines and language barriers. Her vivid imagery and quirky outlook from the vantage point of a missionary makes this a book you will not soon forget. It's a kaleidoscope of lush green foliage dotted with brilliant flowers of every imaginable hue. Toucans chatter in the trees. Giant red-orange hummingbirds with long scissor beaks flick their transparent tongues-darting, guarding, teasing, chasing-their wings whirring like propellers. Palm trees flutter like long eyelashes, batting and flirting with the birds. Enormous banana leaves are fringed and tattered, reminding one that age and experience bring resilience to the wind and elements. The newer leaves will be like that soon enough but for now they sway in the humid, salty breeze, the idealistic perfection of youth.
