(3) K-3 Illustrated by Janet Hamlin. Photographs by Michael Frost. This book describes and shows--with clear photos of children demonstrating each position--twenty yoga poses, including tree, warrior, and cobra. Each pose is accompanied by its associated feelings (e.g., "strength and confidence") and an affirmation to say while holding each position (e.g., "I feel strong and confident"). This twist makes the book a good step up from the typical yoga-for-tots volumes on the market.
