Sheriff Updown Turns the Bad Guys Good: A Cosmic Kids Yoga Adventure (Cosmic Kids Yoga Adventure #3)
by Jaime AmorThe hugely successful Cosmic Kids YouTube channel helps children discover yoga by joining presenter Jaime on monthly yoga adventures, each one a story featuring a lovable animal character that achieves something amazing. Aimed at 4 to 8-year-olds, the Cosmic Kids yoga books offer children a chance to take the yoga more slowly than is possible in a fast-moving video, to spend more time in their favorite poses, and also to enjoy reading or listening to the story. Each book is themed around a specific area of well being; in the case of Lulu, this is coping with feelings of frustration and anger, and finding and managing our own inner power. In this story we're off to the Wild West to have an adventure with Sheriff Updown, the rabbit who takes on all the bad guys. Luckily, Sheriff Updown finds a secret weapon: a Zappy Happy that turns bad guys into good ones. When we face up to Rex the Tex Alligator, Crooked Coyote, Brainshake Rattlesnake and the other bandits, we find that our inner Zappy Happy can make all sorts of scary situations seem fine after all. It's all about staying calm and thinking positively. The story concludes with a relaxation and some affirmations to reinforce the message of the book. With bright illustrations, the books are designed to mirror the Cosmic Kids look, and to allow children to get to know a range of characters from the Cosmic Kids shows. There's also information at the back to help parents and teachers introduce children to yoga, even if they don't practice yoga themselves.
