The Heart's Language

Are you ready for an adventure? Meet Mimi, a brave and curious child with a heart of gold. You'll journey with her through four amazing stories, beginning with a walk with her brother Mohe and Mama through Central Park in New York City. While enjoying a garden, they learn to appreciate many languages and discover the best language.

Another day, Mama tests Mimi, Mohe, and their friend Eva in a unique game that challenges their understanding of the world. Next, Mimi spends a day outdoors, seeking the best birthday present for her mother. But what is the best gift? Different creatures advise her, but no one suggests a fitting one. Finally, she discovers what may be the greatest gift of all.

In the last chapter, meet a magical tree that grants three wishes to Mimi. To her surprise, she soon learns that wishes can have unexpected results. Come along with Mimi, her friends and family as they explore new places, meet new people, and learn valuable lessons along the way.

In The Heart's Language, Nancy Gannon reveals an enchanting series of short stories for parents and teachers to share with children aged four through eight. Each story stands alone and unfolds as a lesson in character using situations relevant to target-age children. The Hearts Language is an invaluable tool for parents and teachers seeking to introduce meditation and yoga to young children, planting the seeds for a lifelong practice.
