Half the proceeds go to Unicef's Gift of Education project. "A lovely lilt of language slides between the horrendous and hilarious in these poems." -Penn Kemp, author of 25 collections, celebrated foremother of Canadian sound poetry.
“Readers of Where the Butterflies Go will already be expecting accomplished, fresh and lively work from Heather Grace Stewart, but even they will be surprised by the strength of this new collection, this genuine Leap, so direct, political and feminine by turns that it can take your breath away. A must for new and already hooked fans.” —Sally Evans, poet and Editor, Poetry Scotland.

Wow! From the cover photo to "page from my notebook" in the back, I thoroughly enjoyed this work of art! Refreshingly modern poetry with timeless sentiment woven throughout. Autumn Will, Valley, and Five Thousand Friends (FUN social networking poem) are three of my favorites from this collection of real life poems and photographs. I discovered the author through an Internet search for "facebook, friends, poem" and her work has intrigued me ever since! A big thank you to Heather Grace Stewart for being in tune with the world and for believing in the power of poetry to connect people -- whether they are friends, strangers or even a world apart.
"these accomplished but unforced pieces, engage, entertain and enliven."

Absolutely love this book! Heather is such a gifted poet. She captured me from the first words, I could not put this book down until I had read it all. Now to read it again and again and savour it. Thanks Herather, what a wonderful gift to the world!
The poem 'Forever August keeps calling me back to my copy of Leap. By way of contrast, I love the black and white instantaneity/foreverness of 'Coping.' Heather Grace Stewart has a fine hand that knows how to dip into the emotional well and then paint outside the lines, outside the
box, outside of herself, where everyone else is. She has a gift of looking inside a minute, seeing what makes it tick and then explaining it to us. Bravo.
This book by Heather Grace Stewart is fabulous. This collection, as with her last collection, she brings a great deal of humanity to her poetry and it takes you through the gamut of human emotions. It also displays some beautiful photography by this talented young Canadian. She really touched my heart.
