Another great book from Julia Cook that can be used by school counselors and classroom teachers to reinforce the concepts of being present. The main character is relatable making it simple to brainstorm with students. I always appreciate how her books are written with a child's internal monologue. If you are looking for a story to open up the conversation about mindfulness, this is a great one to grab. Laura Driscoll I am so excited to add this book to my school counseling inventory! Julia Cook never disappoints with her excellent storytelling style which helps children understand otherwise complex concepts. When reading this book, children will learn why it is important to be in the present and how staying mindful can help them with school, relationships, and working toward their goals. I highly recommend this book for parents and educators! Vanessa G. Allen School Counselor, Instagram @savvyschoolcounselor
