.	Book Reviews: “This book is great! I am a preschool teacher and I promised to teach my 4 and 5 year olds Yoga. I gave them this book to look at before I started and I found them doing the poses without me. They would just look at each page and do the pose on it. They had so much fun. By the time I started doing yoga with them they were already familiar with most of the poses. It was very easy for them to follow. The pictures are great and the book uses poses that the children are interested in like downward facing dog and dead bug. We love it!” - Jodi   “ I bought this book for my 3 year old after repeatedly checking it out from our library. It is a simple and colorful book w/ easy pictures to follow. My daughter loves it and understands how to do the positions from just looking at the pictures. I highly recommend it!” - James
