A perfect bedtime read, this picture book gently encourages children to explore the senses and discover their path to mindfulness.
"Mindfulness is all about connetion with ourselves and the world around us."
This poetically-written introduction to mindfulness touches upon the most important aspects of life--feeling, discovering, smelling, listening, and all the things that bring the world to life. With every soothing read and practice, children are better equipped to understand and control their own emotions...and diiscover an appreciation for the beautiful world around them.
