Reviewed by Nancy Tobin for Readers' Favorite

Shavasana Sun by Taylor Harper is an excellent bedtime read for early readers or younger children who might have trouble settling down at bedtime, nap time, or when a calming atmosphere might be needed or appreciated. I love the idea of breathing practices for children as they can be relaxing and fun before bedtime or whenever a child needs the discipline of a calming, relaxing atmosphere. The colorful, vibrant illustrations in the book are charming, age-appropriate, and very professional for early readers or K-3 students. I loved the farm theme and the happy sun, as children can easily relate to the farm animals and weather themes.

I loved Shavasana Sun by Taylor Harper, and I would recommend the book to any parent who might appreciate the benefits of yoga and meditation. This book is an excellent way to introduce young children to mindfulness, self-awareness, and soothing relaxation. Young children can be nervous, stressed, tired, or anxious, just like all the cute farm animals. The book has a positive message with a happy sun and shows that mindful breathing can help even farm animals resolve their everyday stresses. Overall, I found Sahvasana Sun a very engaging book, with strong, appealing illustrations and a conclusive message for kids of all ages.
