Sometimes the world is just too much, from a sibling' s bedtime snoring and a friend' s smelly lunch to the crowded playground so loud you can' t even think. Follow the journey of one girl as she sets off to find some space of her own. Gradually, she wants more and more until there is nothing left except space, where she can breathe, dream, rest, and think. Soon, the girl decides to tell her family about why space (and mindfulness) is so important to her, and they all learn to share some space together. With ingenious use of images of the galaxy as a metaphor for personal space, A Little Space for Me is a visually stunning and original story for any child who needs to find place of their own in our great, big world.
"Inventive compositions will transport readers into the thoughts and emotions of the protagonist. Both text and art show familiar experiences, but Olson also leaves them open to interpretation, showing people can interact with the world in different ways . . . Ripe for discussion. " --Kirkus Reviews"A thought-provoking rumination on mindfulness . . . Olson' s art is gorgeous . . . An excellent choice for a bedtime book as kids wind down from their chaotic days. " --The Bulletin of the Center for Children' s Books
