About the Book
“I wrote the book I needed as a kid.” — Rashmi
When Nezzo learns that his family is moving to a new place for his mommy’s job, he doesn’t know how to react. The new place is very different from what he is used to, and he is filled with questions about his new school: Will I make any friends? What will my teacher look like? What if the class has learned more than I have at my old school? He finds himself feeling very nervous. Fortunately, his mommy is there to help guide him.
She teaches him about meditation, a way to sit with his feelings, focus on his breath, and find a way to feel calm - replacing the puzzle piece of himself that had started to unravel. Meditation helps him put roots on his feelings so that he can face the change with a clear mind and heart.
