The "Original" Bully Caterpillar
UPDATED 7" x 9" in Color
​
This is a beautiful story about transformation. Harold was a Bully Caterpillar.  He ate leaves and walked on the ground. He ate so much he became the biggest caterpillar around.  He resisted the urge to build a cocoon like all the other caterpillars.  He thought they were weak.  Besides, there was always new smaller caterpillars hatching and he could take out his frustrations on them.  He hid his loneliness and sadness with meanness.   He needed something special to happen to him, and this is his story; the story of an Inner Child's poignant rite of passage. 
Kids love it!   Adults love it more!!!

Butterflies Don't Land on Manure
 Once upon a time, in this very land, there was a man who learned everything in this book... and died.  He was transformed, and in any transformation, the "caterpillar" dies.  
Jack traveled the world.  He seemed to have everything: a good job, a beautiful wife, a dog, a cat, and a dream house in the suburbs.  But he was not happy.  Follow Caterpillar Jack through the moments of truth that led to the end of his life - or identity - as he knew it: through the discovery of his true self, the discovery of real love, and the beginning of a new life.

Listen to samples of songs from the album

Music From Heaven 
by Sally Wang, adapted and orchestrated by Sam Diaz


Note from Dr. Jay: 
The melodies on this album were originated by Sally Wang, and truly sound like songs from Heaven. Sally sang these songs during inspirational moments into her cell phone. She asked me if I could use these songs in the "Bully Caterpillar" animated feature film we are working on. I politely told her I would listen to them but we had enough songs already. I listened, and these songs stopped me in my tracks. Sam Diaz orchestrated the songs into instrumental music. When I asked Sally how these songs came to her, she simply said they were from heaven. I asked her what language she was singing them with. She said the words too came from Heaven, as if she was talking with God. These melodies occurred in sublime moments and are hard to repeat. So, on two songs on this album, Sam Diaz took the original cell phone recordings and wrapped the music around her voice. It is not the "perfection" of voice that you find in a studio. You can hear Sally take a breath every so often, but we think that makes these moments even more special and inspirational because it allows you to be there in the original moment. We are calling this language "Butterfly Language" in the movie. 
There are two songs written by my grandfather and his friend, Joseph Andrulavage, in 1910. My grandfather would sing the songs while Joe played them on a player piano around Wilkes-Barre, Pa. "From so long ago" was written by Maria DeHart and myself. She is the niece of a former president of Colombia. The melody for "Harold Was a Bully" was originated and donated by my friend, Jeff Young. I wrote the lyrics and Sam worked his magic to orchestrate the music. "God, I Need You" was performed by Nathan Plett from Shanghai, China.

Nasty Men: How to Stop Being Hurt by Them without Stooping to Their Level

 

The second book in this important series discusses what to do when nasty men try to use guilt, manipulation, and "reason" to get their way, and differentiates truly nasty behavior from everyday frustrations that arise between men and women. In Nasty Men, Carter defines several "nasty types," including:

  • The verbal batterer--who uses intimate secrets as ammunition to attack the self-esteem of others

  • The Don Juan--whose charming attentiveness conceals a chronically deceitful personality

  • The liar--who says one thing in front of loved ones but something else behind their backs

  • The Cro-Magnon man--whose attitude turns relationships into battlegrounds

Everyone knows a person who has been hurt, betrayed, or degraded by nasty individuals or has experienced it themselves. In three books, Jay Carter, Psy. D., shows readers how to stop this cycle of overt and covert abuse, without resorting to nasty tactics. Now for the first time, this series is released together to cover all areas of dealing with difficult people.

  • Navigating around the "The Carrot Dangler"--the boss who motivates with the promise of a promotion but never delivers

  • Discerning the deceptive "Two Face"--the supervisor who tells everyone a different story to try to please them all

  • Coping with "The Crusader"--the chief who demands fanatical hard work and dedication from employees but "guilts" them, "misers" them, and demeans them

  • Dealing with "The Chucky Boss"--when this boss is through using you, you get chucked in the "wasted" bin

  • Contending with "The Noper"--the leader who rejects your ideas only to later implement them as his own
