Review:
Sometimes life is so hectic
that it pushes us out of balance. This gentle story teaches kids how to find a
still quiet within themselves so that they can learn to calm the noise around
them and find their peace. Colorful illustrations offer a bit of humor
regarding what it could look like when our emotions carry us away. But these
soothing images and colors also depict how children can tune in by using all
five senses and calm themselves.
Author Susan Verde teaches
that mindfulness is being engaged, paying attention to our feelings, body and
surroundings. The back of the book shares meditation techniques for kids to
practice being mindful. Parents and teachers can use this guide to help
children find the quiet and they can have peace of mind when life throws them
into chaos.
