BUYING ADVISORY:, EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Clovis is a bull in a china shop - literally - he runs his granny's store in the town square, and he's never dropped a dish. But, he does have a temper, because he used to be a football player. One day he is visited by some rival players who tease him and try to make him mad, but Clovis remembers a breathing technique and keeps his cool. In fact, Clovis knows lots of ways to stay calm, but eventually the other bulls push him over the edge and he charges! His grandmother would be so disappointed - is it too late to make things right?
There are so many books about Mindfulness these days, and I really like this one because Clovis is unable to manage and has to repair and refresh, rather than maintain. A great example for the reader that mindfulness is a thing we continue to practice.
