A kids book about mindfulness

Morgan, Caverly,


This is a kids' book about mindfulness. Mindfulness is more than just being present, it's knowing who you are. Are you your thoughts? Are you your feelings? Are you your hairstyle? Or are you something more? This book doesn't just teach kids how to be present with their thoughts -- it teaches them that mindfulness can lead to a better understanding of themselves and why that understanding matters.
