The Present Is A Gift written & Illustrated by Elchanan Ogorek
This is a great gateway book into mindfulness for children. The book uses strong, positive affirmations drawing on very creative connections to animals and their inherent qualities and how that ties into mindfulness through thoughts and actions. The art work is fun and quirky and the animals are really enchanting. This book makes mindfulness very accessible for the young. It is a wonderful addition to the mindfulness for kids books! I highly recommend it.
Thank you to Elchanan Orgorek for sending me a copy of his book. All opinions expressed are my own.
