Master Owl meets Miss Bunny
This is the first of a series of 'Master Owl' books, starting with this one for 3 - 6 year olds - 'Master Owl meets Miss Bunny'.
Master Owl helps all sorts of animals to overcome the big issues in life. Miss Bunny is sad initially because she feels 'lost and small among the trees so big and tall'. However, Master Owl's mindfulness and wisdom helps her to look at life in a very different way and see how all things are connected together.
Children need a wise teacher, a guru, so I came up with the idea of Master Owl - the Guru who flew!
There is also a new chapter book for Young Readers 7 - 11 year olds, available now as a printed book and e-book on Amazon, called 'The Mindful Adventures of Master Owl'.

I am currently touring Devon Primary schools, reading Master Owl and teaching mindfulness. Click here for more information.

Book review from Books Up North
"The story helped me to understand what being mindful means.
Yusuf: This book was good because it taught me about being mindful. The story helped me to understand what being mindful means. There was also some useful information about animals and nature. The pictures were really good and I liked the nice and shiny look. The story is rhyming which was easy for me to read.
Mums thoughts: This story provides a simple explanation of mindfulness which is a great introduction for young children who have not come across the topic before. In addition to the story there is a lovely explanatory page at the end which guides the child through a practical method of being mindful.
This story is very comprehensive not only covering mindfulness but including much information about nature and sparked many questions from my young ones."

"Shared Master Owl's story in my Mindfulness Class for Children. It was a super hit, my students loved it and said that they would like to hear more of these stories. One of them commented, "Miss! Master Owl is like you, he is showing Miss Bunny how to do Dot B. We should show her how to do 'Box Breathing' and 'Mindful Eating', I think she will love it, she likes to eat flowers."
An amazing story to introduce mindfulness to young people. I have bought a second copy for my niece :)
Thank you for sharing your writing with us."
“I read Master owl meets Miss Bunny with my son Jake, who is six years old. He really enjoyed it and throughout the story we kept stopping to talk about different feelings, which is not something he finds easy to do. He could relate to Miss Bunny’s feeling of being overwhelmed and not knowing what to do. He really liked the idea of stopping and breathing in and out slowly.
As I was reading it to him, he started practising it. He said that he could do it if he had a grumpy moment with his sister, for example. When we finished the book, he asked me to photocopy the four-step guide at the back to put in each room of our house so we could all do with a ‘Magical Mindful Moment’ together if things got a bit too much. When we did this together, he said he was very calm and relaxed. Fantastic. Absolutely love it. These skills will help all children and carry on throughout life and the book introduces it in such a child friendly way. Amazing!
Thank you so much, it was quite enlightening as a parent to see how much both children, individually, reacted to the story, it was heart-warming. Keep writing! You have a gift. Thanks again, Michelle, Devon.”
