I’m proud to share a new illustration project and this one is extra special, because the story carries a meaningful message and practice for both children and parents. Steven Zwerink wrote six short and fun stories to help children and their parents discover how breathing can help with tension, a busy mind, or even an overload of excitement.

Lion, full of energy and always ready to roar, and Sloth, calm and relaxed, go on adventures together where they discover how breathing can help them.
Whether it’s sleeping better, running faster, jumping higher, or lifting heavy things – with just a few breathing tricks, they learn how to feel stronger or calmer.

This book takes children on a journey through emotions like anger, sadness, fear, and joy, showing how to understand and manage these feelings. Leeuw en luiaard  is a beautiful book for kids and parents who want to explore how breathing can make every day and night feel a little bit better.
