Celebrate the beauty of the natural world in this meditative picture book encouraging mindfulness, gratitude, and love for the environment--featuring illustrations painted on actual wood.
Can you hug a forest? Of course you can. First you hug the air: open your arms, lift up your chin, and breathe in all the way down to your toes. Then you hug a leaf and a flower and a trail and a stream and all the other wondrous natural elements that make up a forest. Take every chance to soak in your natural surroundings and be grateful for nature.Author Biography
