Description

Each step leads to a new discovery in this evocative picture book about how mindfulness, peace, or change could be just around the corner.

To take a walk is to begin a journey. It can be an adventure or a chance to let your thoughts roam and be one with nature. It can be a time for daydreaming and pondering life's many questions. It can be a time to reflect on the past or to stand up for a better future. So take a step and see where your journey will lead you!

"Encouraging and curious."--Kirkus Reviews "6/15/2022"

"Walking becomes an entry point into deliberate living in this meditative picture book.... Though the concept is simple--even a single step can empower--it uplifts via Deeney Murguia's polished execution."--Publishers Weekly "8/8/2022"
