The fourth book in the bestselling I Am series by Susan Verde and Peter H. Reynolds
The fourth book in the bestselling I Am series, now in board book
From the bestselling team that created I Am Yoga, I Am Peace, and I Am Love comes a hopeful celebration of the human family, which affirms that although we may make mistakes, we can make good choices by acting with compassion and having empathy for others and ourselves. At its heart, this board book is a celebration of empathy and compassion that lifts up the flawed fullness of humanity and encourages the child reader to see themselves as part of one big, imperfect family—millions strong across the world.
The illustrations are clean and colorful against a contrasting background. . . A beautiful tool for teaching love, empathy, and self-care. * School Library Journal *
Emphasizing Verde's common themes of mindfulness and emotional presence, the main character demonstrates expressions of love ranging from keeping their own "mind and body safe and healthy" to careful listening to others. . . Verde provides extensive backmatter, including yoga poses and a heart meditation. These addenda enrich the narrative and provide useful context for the relationship skills outlined in the text. Practical and empowering for young ones learning how to emotionally attend to themselves and others. * Kirkus Review *
