Today I welcome back Kyra Kalweit and Dayán Mantecón Roldán to the blog as this Montessorian takes a look at another one of their books. Take a peek inside I Am One With the Universe and also read my thoughts on it. Be sure to follow the rest of the tour and enter the great giveaway!
This children's book teaches young readers to reflect on a simple yet profound message: We are all connected to everything we see and experience in this world. The essence of God is within each one of us and in everything we see, touch, feel, taste and dream about.
With rhyme and playful illustrations, I Am One with the Universe will help children realize their unity with all things and that they are not separate from God or anyone else.
Read an excerpt:
“I am one with every vegetable I enjoy to eat.
I am one with every fruit, from the sour to the sweet.”

**My thoughts**
My inner Montessorian smiled brightly while reading this book. This is precisely what we try to instill in our young ones. I learned it as a Montessori child and carried it with me to pass on as a Montessori educator.
We get more in depth in the elementary years with our cosmic education, but can start laying the foundation in those younger years, which has been my focus age. I would absolutely add this book to my classroom collection.
And just as in another offering I have read from this duo, the illustrations are fantastic.
There could be some push back for actually using the term "God" when sharing this book with kids. But I would just emphasize in discussions that there are many names throughout different religions and practices.
I received a request review copy from the publisher via Goddess Fish. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Having decided to change careers as professional dance instructors and competitors, Kyra and Dayán completed a yoga teacher training and strategic intervention life-coaching certification and together embarked on the journey of self-discovery by following a calling from deep inside their hearts.
Inspired by the messages from numerous teachers of spirituality and personal growth, plus their love for children, Kyra & Dayán have made it one of their life purposes to translate the teachings they have learned throughout their evolution into children’s books, so the younger generations can benefit early on in their lives from the wisdom of those who have passed before them. Together they founded Feeling Good Books, with the intention to empower, inspire and provide children with tools that will help them navigate through life. They share a desire to contribute to the growth and well-being of each child and parent out there.
Kyra and Dayán live in Montreal, Canada, with their five children.
