In this charming, simple story, an irresistible puppy teaches a little boy how to calm himself through breathing when he feels anxious, distracted, or upset
Parents will love this picture book that helps children see that strong emotions are normal, and they can learn to calm their minds and bodies
A young boy discovers his mind is like a puppy, always wandering away, into the past or the future, and he is just not sure what to do.
After noticing when and why his puppy mind wanders away, he sets about learning to train his puppy mind to heel to the present moment. Through remembering to breathe, the boy becomes a stronger and more caring master of his puppy mind, keeping it in the present, if only for a moment.
With helpful parent/teacher questions at the back of the book, adults can skillfully guide children in noticing when and where their own puppy minds like to wander.
