Can You See It? (Sensing Your World) (Hardcover)
From bestselling author Susan Verde comes a new series exploring the five senses through a mindfulness perspective, highlighting how they allow us to appreciate the world around us
When I am busy—
moving through my day, watching where I go—
looking shows me what is right in front of my eyes.
But when I slow down—
find stillness, and notice with patience and curiosity—
I can see. Seeing shows me more . . .
Gracefully written by Susan Verde, bestselling author of the I Am books, and winsomely illustrated by Juliana Perdomo, the Sensing Your World series teaches little ones to experience the world around them more deeply, using the five senses to find joy, connection, and beauty in the small, everyday moments. Can You See It? encourages us to look closer to see deeper: not just with our eyes, but with our whole hearts.
