Picture Book Wednesday: Sloth Wasn't Sleepy

Sloth isn't sleepy - she's anxious and worried. Luckily her mother has some tricks up her sleeves to let go of her worries. It's not easy, but Sloth lets go one by one until she falls asleep.

A wonderful book for talking about being anxious, learning how to fall asleep when you're worried, and knowing that your mother is there to take care of you. Lots of great messages are in this beautifully illustrated book.

Library Recommendation: A must have picture book for your school or public library. 

Picture Book Wednesday: Yoga Books

I've been reading some YOGA picture books as I purchase them for the library.

Here are a few I enjoyed - each book has the same amazing illustrator. 

Hello Sun:

This is a story about waking up and say good morning to the sun. The yoga poses are included in the story, but there's also a two page spread of the poses at the end of the book. I loved the bright colors and the gorgeous illustrations.

Good Morning Yoga:

Another waking up story, but this one includes instructions into the story pages. The fantastic artwork makes it easy to understand the flow of the yoga poses. Again there is a two page spread just for the poses.

Good Night Yoga:

This is a bedtime story - this one also includes instructions in the story pages. This book talks about yoga to calm your mind right before bedtime - and also includes a spread of just poses. More amazing illustrations in this book.
