Descrição da editora
A Kid's Book of Yoga Poses with a Meditative, Mindful Frog
Frog loves to practice yoga. And he will inspire kids to enjoy doing yoga, too. Follow Frog's yoga flow, from warming up to cooling down. Start with the mountain and chair poses, then work into giraffe, cat-cow, downward-facing dog, butterfly, and bridge. End with the quieting happy baby and savasana poses to help your muscles relax before going to bed or starting your day. For fans of Yoga Bunny and I Am Yoga, Yoga Frog's simple, meditative text is complemented by playful yet instructive illustrations by Mark Chambers to teach youngsters how to start their very own yoga practice -- and to have fun while doing so, too.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Yoga Frog is a green fellow with long, thin legs and arms and a rather anxious expression in his eyes. But he has a morning yoga routine for when "he's not feeling his happy, froggy self, or if he wants to feel better." Yoga Frog demonstrates 19 different yoga poses, including "Giraffe," "Crescent Moon," "Hawk in Nest," "Caterpillar," and "Bridge." Carpenter briefly yet vividly describes how to perform each pose, along with its symbolism: "Raise your arms skyward like branches, breathing as you wobble. Switch feet. Tree pose reminds us to embrace flexibility and not be too stiff." Carpenter includes the names of each pose in Sanskrit "Cat" is "Marjaryasana," and "Volcano" is "Malasana" providing an extra layer of knowledge for interested yogis. Serene and bright background colors offer appealing contrast to Yoga Frog's green tone, and end pages feature a foldout and perforated poster that shows all of his poses. Ages 4 8.
