-- Mummy is Reading

Tomorrow Girl: A Tale of Mindfulness will gently encourage children to slow down and find magic in their everyday. It is a clever and sophisticated picture book.

-- Buzz Words Magazine

Tomorrow Girl is the perfect book to kickstart discussions about mindfulness and slowing down to appreciate the wonder around us. A truly magical (and mindful) find for my school and home library.

-- Childrens Books Daily

Tomorrow Girl is an interesting way to focus on being in the moment and appreciating people and places around you. The story and illustrations are calming and enjoyable.

-- Blue Wolf Reviews

Tomorrow hardly sees a thing, rushing here and there. Yesterday is stuck in the anxiety of past mishaps and things gone wrong, too scared to move beyond them. Today will sit and watch tadpoles, lie in the grass to watch clouds or sit in a tree quiet, still, seeing and appreciating the day he is in.

Mindfulness is a skill to be learnt and cherished so we dont miss the important things in life. Nature, a smile or a new friendship. Loved it.
