RC18-29 Spiritual Life Lessons for Kids with Ariane de Bonvoisin

 

Giggles and Joy gives new perspectives on everyday life, by celebrating topics like Mother Earth in unique ways, a child’s growing body and all its remarkable abilities, and the importance of sleep. The book lovingly articulates the power of subjects like kindness and gratitude, and also of bad days as well. She helps the reader transform tough moments by infusing them with a new light, paving the way for an unexpected, yet welcome lesson. Giggles and Joy demonstrate the power each child carries within. Through the words found in this delightful book, images are created of a world beyond what is in front of the reader. She has created a world that gives voice to a child’s spiritual nature.

You Are Loved centres on the concept that love is everywhere, breaking it down into examples so practical and relatable that speaks to a child on a soulful level. This radiant book transcends the mysteries of life into a thing of beauty; life can be happy and sad, confusing and exciting. Difficult experiences like illness, scary issues like dealing with change, and confusing matters like coping with grown-ups’ emotions are all touched on with meaningful morsels of wisdom, tapping into the soul, helping children remember their inner light.

 

Being You breathes energy into a child’s essential connection to nature, terrestrial and spiritual. Touching upon subjects like God (while honouring the abundance of diverse spiritual beliefs), in telling the truth and the importance of breathing, this sweet book empowers children to believe in their strength of character. Readers are encouraged to take charge of their lives by listening to their heart and thinking for themselves. Being You nurtures the children who read it, wrapping them in a cloak of love and light, teaching them that they have the tools on the inside to heal, to overcome, to be who they are.

 

Ariane describes the books as being “‘spiritual’ in that they are imbued with love, optimism, humour, honesty and common sense.” They do not promote or offend anyone’s sense of God or the Universe. They exist beautifully next to anyone’s beliefs. It is urgent that we take care of our children’s spirit as much as their minds and bodies.”
