    Embrace empathy with even the tiniest humans in I Am Human, a board book edition of the instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

    “An age-appropriate and hopeful look at what it means to be a connected human on this planet.” ?School Library Journal

    From author Susan Verde and illustrator Peter H. Reynolds, the bestselling team that created I Am Yoga and I Am Peace, comes a hopeful celebration of the human family which affirms that although we may make mistakes, we can make good choices by acting with compassion and having empathy for others and ourselves.

    A child in a red-striped shirt and blue jeans explores the possibilities open to them as a human being. Beginning with “I was born. A miracle! One of billions but unique!” the text lists activities (“I am always learning”; “I have BIG dreams”). The child explores the difficult sides of being human, such as feelings of fear and sadness. They can “make choices” and “move forward” with “thoughtfulness” (for example, giving flowers to a friend they hurt), learning to live with kindness, compassion, listening, and connection. “I am full of hope. I am human.”

    When we find common ground, we can feel connected to the great world around us and mindfully strive to be our best selves.

    Includes a guided meditation.
