Description: "Terra and Marius are star children, heavenly beings who come to earth with all their special wisdom and powers to live as human beings in a faraway time and place.  Yet like modern youth, they face the challenges of fear, loneliness, the need to please, and the stigma of showing their true selves when they do not fit in with those around them.  Betraying their own hearts, each gives up or misuses the very things that make them unique.  As they seek a return to their true selves, Terra must find the courage to offer her healing gifts to others, and Marius must learn to live again with an open heart in a world that is often cruel to those most sensitive.  Along the way, they encounter wise teachers in the creatures of the sea and earth, the trees of the forest, and the elders of their world"--Jacket flap.
