Review Detail

YoYo is an exuberant young bunny who has trouble settling down. Even at bedtime, she has a lot of trouble not wiggling and giggling. Her Grandpa has a good idea; he will teach YoYo and other little bunnies how to do yoga. YoYo tries, but the grass tickles her bottom, she rolls around too much when doing bridge pose, and jumps around when trying to be a calm mountain. When the group is doing tree pose, YoYo spots a butterfly and is soon running off to chase it. She gets lost deep in the woods, and is scared and anxious. She tries some of the poses that Grandpa taught her, and breathes in and out. This calms her down, and she is able to remember her way home. After all of the exercise of getting home, she is able to join the other bunnies who are sitting and breathing. Even though she still has some trouble calming herself down, she now has new tools to regulate her behavior and to help her get to sleep at night. The end of the book gives directions for six traditional beginner yoga poses.
