I Am Peace a Book of Mindfulness
I Am Peace: A Book of Mindfulness is a gentle picture book that guides young readers through calming their minds when overwhelmed by worry or rushing thoughts. Through simple, soothing language, the child narrator describes moments of feeling like a “boat with no anchor,” then shows how pausing, noticing the breath, engaging the senses (seeing clouds, touching the earth, listening, etc.), and expressing kindness and gratitude can help one feel grounded. The vivid watercolor illustrations by Peter H. Reynolds support these moments, inviting children to slow down, connect with nature, and discover inner peace. The book ends with a guided meditation aimed at helping children—and adults—find calm in daily life.
