I was hesitant to put this book under Non-Fiction, simply because the pictures are so absorbing and emotive that it could easily be considered a picture book.

However, I placed it here because it handles the topic of children’s mindfulness, and ways they can ground themselves using their senses, or become more aware of the world around them.
The book is very simple, maybe even too simple for any kind of fully rounded understanding of the idea of mindfulness. However, for a teacher, this book would be the perfect tool to begin a discussion about how we can be more mindful in school or at home. With plenty of very simple and easy exercises to do as a class. It would be a wonderful short break, beginning or end of the day relaxation, and hopefully begin a great conversation around well-being.
