Recenzii
In a time of uncertainty, this resource book is full of tips for being more optimistic and mindful.
With all the challenges young people face today, mental health has become a priority. This practical resource, full of bright illustrations and recommendations for self-help, starts with information on the mind and body. Mindfulness, meditation, and breathing are discussed early. Bell addresses positive and negative thoughts and cultivating a growth mindset before diving into the benefits of physical activity for an upbeat outlook. Some topics, like keeping a gratitude journal, get brief treatment, while others that are more complex, like yoga, have multiple pages and illustrations. Information is provided via different formats: narrative text, bright artwork, activities, recipes, games, and stories of kids around the world who are making a positive impact in their communities. The second half of the book covers ideas for doing rather than being. Some of the suggestions might be out of reach for those with limited budgets, but the number and variety of options makes the volume inclusive. While the premise of creating an optimistic mindset is strong and valuable, the examples of exceptional children may not have the intended effect. Nevertheless, suggestions that help readers experience the pleasure of having a positive influence on others include more modest and accessible ideas.
An inviting guide covering internal and external pathways to optimism. (resources, author’s note) (Nonfiction. 8-12)
