Zen and Now by Michelle Oram and illustrated by Marianne Orlando is an introduction to meditation and what possums can teach us.
What can possums teach us? Nonviolence, stillness, and self-protection are their superpowers, and they have been around for over 70 million years. In a fast and sometimes overwhelming world, they remind us to slow down, stay peaceful, and create our own safe, calm space to grow.
When the world is scary it’s important to create our own Zen peaceful space and blossom like a possum.
This book is a peaceful and playful way to introduce children to mindfulness and self-care. It also shows how-to setup your own Zen special peaceful place from an art page in the book which makes for a fun reading and craft activity!
Recommended ages 3-8
