The Garden of Peace (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781764436007)

The Garden of Peace is a gentle, calming children's picture book that invites young readers into a quiet garden where feelings can slow, bodies can settle, and peace can grow.

Through soothing language and nature-based imagery, this story supports children to explore mindfulness, emotional regulation, and self-awareness in a way that feels safe, warm, and accessible. As children move through the garden, they are guided to notice their breathing, their bodies, and their emotions - helping them learn how to find calm during moments of overwhelm.

Designed with a neuroaffirming lens, The Garden of Peace honours each child's unique nervous system and emotional experience. Rather than trying to "fix" feelings, the story gently validates them and offers simple, grounding strategies that children can return to again and again.

Written by an Occupational Therapist, this book is a valuable resource for families, educators, and therapists seeking supportive tools for sensory regulation, social emotional learning, and wellbeing. It is especially suited to children who experience anxiety, big feelings, sensory sensitivities, or difficulty with emotional regulation.

Perfect for home, classrooms, therapy settings, and quiet moments before rest, The Garden of Peace encourages connection, calm, and compassion - reminding children that peace is something they can grow within themselves.
