What does being present look like? Noticing when someone in your class needs help and taking the time to help them. Sound like? The rain outside your window. Smell like? Briny seaweed at the beach. Taste like? A bite of orange. Feel like? Allowing the rhythm of your breath, in and out ...to make you feel peaceful. Follow a group of friends at school, at home, and at the beach as they experience just what it means to be present.

Pat Zietlow Miller is the award-winning picture book author of Be Kind , Sophie's Squash , Sharing the Bread , The Quickest Kid in Clarksville , and Wherever You Go (illustrated by Eliza Wheeler), among others. She lives in Wisconsin. Rana DiOrio was born in Providence, RI and grew up in a colorful Italian-American family. Her curiosity about the world began in kindergarten, while studying Western access to China and, obviously, panda bears. As a political science major/psychology minor in college, and then as a law student, she became fascinated with understanding perspective, and how just about any person, place, thing, or situation can be interpreted in so many valid ways.
