Review 5 Stars Absolutely Gorgeous What a wonderful book! The love in the drawings and the wisdom in the words is something for children and adults to share. I am in my 50s and a devotee of mindfulness, and have to say that this book brings something new and magical to the understanding of well being. There is real poignancy in the innocent rightness of Little Moose's take on the world, his huge affection for his dog Wolfie and the simple, and priceless, joy of being together. Wise at beyond its apparent simplicity this is a book to share, to discuss and to return to on the days that get you down. Can't wait to see the other books in this series. Truly recommended. A book to treasure. - J.R.Wills Amazon UK5 Stars Beautifully conceived and producedBeautifully conceived and produced... perfect as a gift for any child or adult who'd like to take a moment to step out of the 'busy' world into something gentler, kinder, more reflective... Two characters to return to again and again. - Judy Anderson Amazon UK5 Stars Marvellous Mindfulness not just for VikingsThis book is totally charming with fantastically cute (but not soppy) illustrations of Moose and Wolfie for the wise sayings that they accompany. "Everybody loves somebody" is my favourite but you need to buy the book to see why. Suitable for everyone. Can't imagine anyone not loving it. - Finns Mum Amazon UK5 Stars Fabulous little book!Gorgeous art work combined with little slices of wisdom make this something rather special. A worthy addition to my sons library, I look forward to enjoying it alongside him! - Mr James Mitchell Amazon UK From the Author We loved writing this little book. It is the first book in a much longer series and we didn't expect the series to start here! Leo and I came up with a saying when we were working together, 'Don't let small fears stop big adventures', and every time the idea of writing a whole new series seemed like an impossible dream, we'd remind each other. And it really helped. It made us hopeful again. And that's how Mindfulness for Vikings was born. We wanted to share all the sayings that helped us. Some of them are Viking, some are mindfulness classics, and some are from our own experience. But this one is my favorite. Sometimes we all just need to take a deep breath, smile, and take the next step on our big adventure! From the Back Cover Despite their fearsome reputation for blood curdling battles and outrageous axe wielding, every Viking seeks inner calm. Join Little Moose and his dog, Wolfie, as they find gentle happiness through adventure, play and just moosing around.
