Review

'Offers both a soothing nighttime routine and an age-appropriate introduction to mindfulness.' -- Kirkus Reviews

'Winn Lee introduces meditative body scanning with the help of creative visualizations involving puppies, blankets, balloons, and more in this quieting picture book.' -- Publishers Weekly

'Hello, body. Hello, dear friend. We've been with each other all day, but sometimes I forget to notice you!' Lee' author of The Boy With the Big, Big Feelings - 2019 and The Girl With the Big, Big Questions - 2021, presents an engaging, conversational offering about a bedtime routine rooted in mindfulness that every family can use. Little ones are invited to say goodbye to their last wiggles of the day by pretending to curl up like a hedgehog and then opening up like a starfish. Then it's time to climb into bed and take a few deep breaths. First readers say goodnight to their heads, wishing for it to be as light as a breeze. Next they ask their minds to be 'playful like a puppy. Catch comforting thoughts, sailing by like bubbles, and gently blow the others away.' Face, eyes, mouth, shoulders, arms--all the way down to the toes, children greet each body part and wish it goodnight before drifting off for a restful sleep. Fallberg's softly flowing illustrations depict wide-eyed, happy youngsters who have a variety of skin tones (including one brown-skinned little one who appears to have vitiligo) following the instructions of the text, sometimes from bed, sometimes in their imaginations. One child uses a wheelchair. -This book was reviewed digitally Offers both a soothing nighttime routine and an age-appropriate introduction to mindfulness. -Picture book. 2-6 -- Kirkus Reviews
