Amazon.com Want to learn how to speak the language of critters, large and small? Easy-to-read and understand, Ted Andrews's bestselling Animal Speak shows readers how to identify his or her animal totem and learn how to invoke its energy and use it for personal growth and inner discovery. Nature lovers will love this insightful compendium, chock-full of touching stories about animals, natural history, and animal folklore. Readers will also learn magical animal rites and how to read omens. Animal Speak includes a dictionary of bird, animal, reptile, and insect totems, which describe each creature's meaning. For example, if a person's totem is dragonfly, he or she was most likely excessively emotional and passionate in early years, learning with age to balance it with mental clarity and control. If a dragonfly suddenly shows up in your life, it means you may need to gain a new perspective or make a change. --P. Randall Cohan

Fun and Useful for Dream Work August 30, 2008 Quadradox (Helena, Montana United States) For the animals covered, this books gives a surprising amount of detail about possible meanings of animal symbolism relevant to working with images in my dreams and meditations. I didn't find as much available for fish and reptiles, more for birds and mammals.
The author's perspective seems to be respectful of each animal and the wisdom of the reader. It does not attempt to be a cookbook of "hard and fast" analytic interpretations. Instead it offers helpful suggestions drawn from the animals' role and behavior in the wild, as well as symbolic meanings from a mythic or cultural viewpoints.
Fun to read...cover to cover.
I love this book. August 22, 2008 Kristiana J. Rominske This is by far, my most useful and favorite book. I cannot believe that one person can know so much. Unreal. I highly recommend it for anyone with an interest in animal symbolism.
marvelous August 12, 2008 Misra Kramlin (Mx) Excelent book, easy reading, diagrams and ilustrations hepls undertanding. A step by step introduction to power animals and the mystery and magic of mystic life, and how you can use it in our own life to heal or improve it.
Animal Speak July 24, 2008 S. Ippolito (USA) The book was recommended to me by an animal totem reader. Explains the totems in depth. Good reference book for those seeking additional information regarding animal totems.
Interesting read.... July 8, 2008 Diamondsadancing07 (Texas) I found this book to be most interesting and yes at being almost an inch thick..and being a busy mom and not the fastest reader..Im still reading. If one is simply wishing to fill a bookshelf then that would be a major waste..but for really wishing to learn new things and go for improvement and appreciation of life ..of all it's intended richness..this is a great book.
