Take a Breath by Sujean Rim

Take A Breath is a beautiful picture book that tells the story of an anxious baby bird who fears that he will never learn to fly.

It’s a beautiful story aimed at children aged between 4-8 years talking about anxiety, trying something new and mindfulness.

Bob the bird watches as all the other birds can fly and go up but when he tries, he ends up going DOWN!

His friend Crow teaches him how to breathe in a mindful way – and it was just the trick to get Bob flying confidently!

The book is such a great way to teach kids about overcoming their fear of not getting something right and also how important it is to just stop and breathe to get you over the hurdles in life.

My kids are aged 4 and 8 years old, so it was a great book that could be shared between the two of them as they were entertained by Bob’s story as well as loved the illustrations.
