Book Synopsis

With clever, inventive art and universally relatable themes, A Little Space for Me by Jennifer Gray Olson is a heartwarming picture book about the importance of mindfulness, understanding, and finding a moment of peace within a big, busy world.

Review Quotes

"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
