Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this e-galley of Bee Calm, The Buzz on Yoga. I feel better already!
The text of this picture book is rhyming and the illustrations are appealing. The reader observes Bee as he buzzes about and spends a little time with many of his friends. They are all doing yoga poses. At first, Bee is not sure that he is interested but then he decides to give it a try. He learns more about yoga and starts to make it a part of his life.
This is another in the series published by the American Psychological Association. There is a reminder about the hectic pace of life and the need for kids to learn ways to let go of that. A helpful section at the back of the book suggests ways in which adults can practice yoga with children.
I highly recommend this title. It makes yoga feel appealing, fun and helpful.

Bentley Bee decides to go for a fly one beautiful summer day. While flying, he sees several of his friends practicing yoga. At first he thinks it looks funny, and he is not interested in trying it out. After seeing several of his friends do various poses (which are named in the story) he decides to try it out, and soon finds he enjoys the way yoga makes him feel.
This book is an adorable introduction to yoga. It has 8 basic poses throughout the story, each modeled by an illustration of an animal in the pose. If you are planning on introducing yoga to a young child, this book would be a fun and effective way to do it!
I would recommend this book to anyone who has intentions of practicing or teaching yoga with/to young children. In my opinion, this book would work well for children from age 2 on up.

The "buzz" on this book that you need to know is that it's awesome and very calming. I love that it's interactive for child readers and that it provides them with beneficial form of exercise and meditation. It also invites readers to try new things. The illustrations are just so darling, love them. I would recommend this book for everyone big and small.
