The Little Breeze

By Jess Galatola

On a warm afternoon, a little breeze grows restless and blows off to find some fun. He topples hats, ruffles a flower shop display, and snatches a seagull's chip. Giggling, he blows on, causing chaos wherever he goes. It's all so exciting that the little breeze grows and grows... ...until he is a whirling, wild hurricane, tearing through town, while all the children and adults run for their houses. Then, all at once, the breeze realises he is completely alone. He feels a little silly, and a little sorry. He hadn't meant to lose control. Focusing on his breath, in and out, in and out, the little breeze begins to calm down and puts things right. Lively and reassuring, The Little Breeze is a story about big feelings, losing control, and finding your way back to calm. It models, without ever preaching, the simple act of taking a moment to breathe, self-regulate and make amends for any child (or grown-up) who has ever been swept up in the moment.
