My Review:
This was a really cute story about a boy waiting for his dad to pick him up. He thinks about all of the different places his dad could be. As he thinks of different yoga positions and how they can be used. I learned new moves, and it was definitely interesting to read the different poses. I also really liked the way the story was written and I liked how easy it was to read.I think that it is good to make exercise easy and fun! I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
Thank you so much for the review and hosting my book on your website!
