Children will learn the basics of mindful breathing along with
their ABCs in this playful and interactive board book. In
Alphabreaths, children learn their ABCs along with the basics of
mindfulness through fun exercises and illustrations they'll want to
come back to again and again. Each letter of the alphabet teaches a
simple mindfulness or compassion-based practice to help kids focus
their thoughts, hold positive feelings for others, express
gratitude, and more. It's as easy as ABC! Kids will open their arms
wide like jaws on Alligator Breath, take a big breath and sing
"Laaa" on Voice Breath, and imagine blowing out birthday candles on
Cake Breath. With Heart Breath and Wish Breath, they will remember
to fill their heart with gratitude and send good wishes to others.
Alphabreaths offers a meaningful introduction to mindfulness for
children, all while keeping them delighted with imaginative
inspiration and hours of fun.

In this delightful story, by the same author who wrote When Grandma
Gives You a Lemon Tree, a boy is disappointed with his
grandfather's gift--until he learns he can use it to build exactly
what he wanted with his own two hands, and a little help from
grandpa, of course! You asked for a special house for your dolls;
but instead Grandpa gives you a toolbox! What do you do? Launching
it into outer space is a bad idea. So is feeding it to a T. rex!
Instead, be patient, pay attention, and you might find that you're
pretty handy. And just maybe, with grandpa's help, you'll get that
dollhouse after all. This clever story celebrates kindness, hard
work, and community, as well as variety in gender expression: the
male main character proudly engages in activities that might be
considered typically girl (playing with dolls) and typically boy
(building with tools).
