A Today Show Read with Jenna Book Club Pick!

From spiritual activist, racial justice educator, and bestselling author Rachel Ricketts comes an inspiring picture book guiding children in heart-centered and mindfulness-based practices in the face of fear, anxiety, and racial injustice.

Hold on to what matters;
to joy
and being free.

When the world gets to be too much, we can always take a moment to look within ourselves for love, support, and healing. This lyrical mindfulness guide filled with an inspiring, positive self-esteem message helps young ones, especially Black and Brown children, feel big feelings and celebrate their whole being.

Includes a special author’s note and guide for caregivers to help little ones get embodied when their feelings get too big to handle.
