I Am Love (Deluxe Gift Edition): A Book of Compassion

by Susan Verde, Peter H. Reynolds (Illustrator)

Overview

This gorgeous slipcased edition of the companion to I Am Human and I Am Peace makes the perfect gift.

Celebrate kindness, compassion, self-care, and love in all its forms in this beautifully illustrated book!

Love means showing kindness, living with gratitude, and taking care of our minds and bodies. Letting our hearts lead the way can help move us closer to a better world. “I put my hands on my heart and listen. And that is where I find the answer: I have compassion. I act with tenderness. I am love.”

I Am Love asks readers to look inward when they feel afraid, angry, hurt, or sad. When a storm is brewing inside us and the skies grow dark, the transformative power of love lets the light back in. Includes heart-opening yoga poses and a guided meditation.

“Practical and empowering for young ones learning how to emotionally attend to themselves and others.” —Kirkus

Editorial Reviews

"Vignettes of the child in a balance pose, feeding birds, and meditating beneath a tree (magically sprouting from fallen birdseed) reinforce messages of kindness, compassion, and self-awareness as worry melts into bliss...A gentle, helpful tool for cultivating kid mindfulness."
