Advance Praise for Mystery Pose:
“As a pediatrician, I'm always looking for creative ways to help kids fall in love with healthy habits. Mystery Pose is exactly that—a beautiful, engaging book that puts the fun in fitness and inspires children to be mentally and physically strong, whether they realize it or not!" - Dr. Steve Silvestro, Pediatrician, Host of The Child Repair Guide Podcast and Founder of the Mindfulness for Parents Online Course.
“Andrea Creel’s Mystery Pose: A Yoga Guessing Game, captures the playful curiosity that is at the heart of yoga…the use of a guessing game to cue poses is so creative and fun. I plan on using these guessing games with adults as well as children. Children will enjoy learning the Sanskrit words for the poses along with the delightful descriptions. I work with a diverse patient population so I was happy to see children of all colors and ethnicities represented throughout the book. I can’t wait to introduce this book to my pediatric patients!” - Lauren M. Dome, RN, MSN, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, Mental Health Specialist, and Registered Yoga Instructor RYT500
“Kids and families will enjoy reading together and trying to guess the poses while being in the poses. The author's words are incredibly poetic and almost musical! I feel like I am moving gracefully through a vinyasa flow as I read the story. The illustrations by Deran Deegala are really wonderful. The pictures are inviting and empowering! The children look strong, peaceful, and confident." - Kim Hughes CCC-SLP, Certified Pediatric Speech Language Pathologist and Co-Founder of Talk Yoga, Speech and Language Therapy + Yoga
“This book is a fun and creative way to introduce and do some yoga! The poems are great for new and seasoned yogis alike, as they try to figure out which pose goes with each description. Fun for kids, great for adults, and a great way to share some yoga with your littlest friends.” - Mariela Gomez, Children’s Yoga Teacher and Owner of My Little Light Yoga
“Cleverly written and delightfully illustrated, 'Mystery Pose' is colorful, imaginative, and inclusive; a great book for inspiring any child's interest in yoga." - Hari-kirtana das, Yoga Teacher and Author of In Search of the Highest Truth: Adventures in Yoga Philosophy
“I have a feeling that this book is going to be a part of every kids yoga teacher's kit. It is a great addition to every yoga lesson and a wonderful way to engage children to practice yoga. It all works really well, the guessing game, the illustrations, the beautiful and uplifting messages that shine through the book.” - Shlomi Almoslinos, Author of Yogi on a Journey; Founder of Yoga4Kids Sydney
“Andrea Creel has written an engaging, whimsical and beautiful ‘invitation’ for children to express their appreciation of yoga through language and movement. By using the metaphor of ‘mystery’ to assist in remembering each pose, she teases answers out of youngsters by reminding them of the attributes of familiar poses while walking them through the cues to create each asana. A skillful series of lessons on building and celebrating a child's practice with playfulness and compassion, framed within vibrant illustrations by Deran Deegala.” - Linda Lang C-IAYT, E-RYT, Certified Yoga Therapist, Symposium Director for Therapeutic Yoga of Greater Washington, the Smithsonian’s Medical Yoga Symposium, and Advisory Council Member for the International Association of Yoga Therapists
