Overview

Celebrate the phenomenon of glimmers (the opposite of triggers) in this inspiring picture book about the moments in our lives that spark joy, bring peace, and inspire hope--with illustrations by #1 New York Times bestselling artist Ramona Kaulitzki. Search with your eyes, keep your heart open too, and look for the glimmers that shine their way through. You can find a glimmer anywhere: a flower growing out of the sidewalk, a rainbow after a storm, a whiff of something delicious--even a puppy licking your nose. When you're feeling anxious or gloomy, spotting a glimmer can calm racing thoughts or put a smile on your face. And once you begin looking, you'll find more and more glimmers, and start sharing their magic with friends! This lyrical ode to making time for tiny moments of tranquility is a gentle introduction to mindfulness for young readers, or the perfect gift to brighten anyone's day.
