Sometimes it’s difficult, but we all learn from each of our steps; even if we fall, and often, these steps change our whole world! Lovely!

Description

Each step leads to a new discovery in this evocative picture book about how mindfulness, peace, or change could be just around the corner.

To take a walk is to begin a journey. It can be an adventure or a chance to let your thoughts roam and be one with nature. It can be a time for daydreaming and pondering life’s many questions. It can be a time to reflect on the past or to stand up for a better future. So take a step and see where your journey will lead you!

Praise for When You Take a Step

"Encouraging and curious."

"Walking becomes an entry point into deliberate living in this meditative picture book.... Though the concept is simple—even a single step can empower—it uplifts via Deeney Murguia’s polished execution."
