Ages 4 to 7 years. This engaging picture book introduces children to yoga and yoga postures. Through simple text and colourful illustrations, they learn calming breathing techniques and reach a restful Sivasana (sleep). Young readers are shown how the body movements and actions of different jungle characters are mimicked in yoga poses, and by joining in, children not only practice yoga, but also learn the philosophy that we are all connected at a deeper level.

Brigid Mylod is a dedicated practitioner and teacher of Ashtanga Yoga. She has travelled to India several times to study with her teachers, Sri K Pattabhi Jois and Sharath Rangaswamy. She is a Speech and Language Therapist who has spent more than 12 years using and creating stories to develop children's language skills in early education classrooms. Brigid also worked with an Early Education Program to introduce pre-school children to yoga. She lives in Scotland.
