Descripción editorial
Wellness expert Mallika Chopra speaks to a younger audience in this new picture book about feeling emotions in your body through color.
Did you know that your body is absolutely amazing? It can do so many things at the same time, explore the world both inside and outside, and help you feel the feelings deep down inside. When you start to feel big feelings, it's helpful to use colors, words, and breath to explore your body and to make yourself calmer and more at peace.
In wellness expert Mallika Chopra's debut picture book, she helps children imagine a rainbow of colors radiating from their body and combines this color connection with breathing exercises to help them relieve stress, tension, fears, and sadness and to feel happier and more at peace. My Body Is a Rainbow, adapted from her middle grade guidebook Just Feel, is sure to be a go-to resource for parents, caregivers, and educators to help preschool-aged children feel safe, creative, strong, loved, unique, wise, and perfect just the way they are.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Adapted from wellness expert Chopra's middle grade guide Just Feel, this nonfiction picture book debut teaches children to connect colors with their feelings, intending to increase physical and emotional awareness. In instructive prose, Chopra leads readers through each color of the rainbow, offering a directed meditation with corresponding actions, including deep breathing and placing a hand on each relevant body part while speaking affirmations: "Imagine the color green surrounding your heart,/ holding it with kindness./ Breathe in and out./ Say, ‘I am loved.' " Burton's vivid digital illustrations feature a cast of children with varying skin tones, a different child demonstrating each action against a calming monotone background. An accessible picture book that offers fresh, age-appropriate methods for centering oneself. Ages 4–8.
