A little boy begins taking yoga lessons at the zoo, where he learns that he can mimic the animals there with simple yoga poses. When he returns home after his lessons, he practices with his cat, Nino. With an illustration of each animal pose and a description of how to do it on each page, this enchanting book makes the perfect instruction guide for even the smallest yogi.

Lorena V. Pajalunga graduated from the Bihar School in India, founded by Swami Satyananda Saraswati, where she was given the spiritual name of "Pragya Chaksu Swami Saraswati." She then specialized in teaching yoga to children at the Italian Federation of Yoga. She also graduated with a degree in education from the University of Milan Bicocca in Italy, where she now manages yoga workshops. Anna Forlati was born in Padua, Italy. After receiving a degree in contemporary art and a degree in film history at the IUAV University in Venice, she now dedicates herself to the world of illustration for children. She has illustrated several books and has taken part in many international exhibitions dedicated to illustration. Since 2014 she has been collaborating with the Onlus Radio Magica Foundation.
"Pajalunga's gentle and supportive tone offers encouragement for hesitant students as well as energetic preschoolers. The device of giving personality traits for each animal (brave lion, funny camel, noble tiger, etc., enumerated in the backmatter) allows children to connect their thoughts and feelings to the physical movements of each pose." Kirkus Reviews, October 1, 2015
"Yoga for Kids playfully welcomes children into the healthy benefits of yoga and its natural inspirations." Foreword Reviews, Fall 2015
"There is joy and symmetry in the gentle illustrations, and they pair nicely with the text, which conveys the peace and relaxation of yoga through the little boy's eagerness." School Library Journal, September 1, 2015
"Though Pajalunga's somewhat lengthy text can be complex for young readers, the instructions are clear, thoroughly explaining where young yogis should place head, hands, and feet. Forlati's warm, peaceful illustrations depict each pose opposite the animal it mimics: the narrator stands on one foot like a flamingo, raises up his head and shoulders like a cobra, and arches his back like a cat." Booklist, November 15, 2015
