Book
Description
:




Rob
is the last child to be picked up by his father from school! He
starts to imagine what his dad might be up to.


Maybe he’s
in a jungle? With pirates? In outer space?


This
book uses fun yoga routine that
 energizes your
child. Imagining pirates, tigers and aliens can make things exciting
for children especially when they can

roar or
call out “Ahoy matey!”





This book
uses traditional yoga poses in a flowing and fun sequence. Children
will increase their body awareness, strength and fitness and most of
all, have fun.




 

My Review:

This is an adorable story of a child imagining what his father is doing when he doesn't arrive on time to pick him up one day.  All the wonderful adventures in this little boy's imagination lead to different yoga poses that the child reading this book can do while reading along.

Each pose is accompanied by it's explanation and a picture of other children doing the poses to help the reader see what he or she is supposed to do.

The story itself is one that young children will enjoy.  The yoga poses are fun ways to exercise the mind and body while reading along with the story.

My youngest child really enjoyed having the story read to her and she even tried a few of the poses.  It is a cute book and a fun way to introduce yoga to children.
