In her debut picture book, Ally Condie introduces children to mindfulness and being grounded in the present. Everyone experiences a wide range of emotions, and some of them are not easy to handle. Ally Condie has crafted a meditation that illustrates some practical ways to stay grounded when the world feels overwhelming. We can feel, taste, look, hear, or smell. We can be creative or express our thoughts. We can do kind things for others. We can ask for a hug.
