Happy Right Now by Julie Berry

4.0

You know, this one surprised me. I very much thought "Oh, sure, another book that harps on about choosing to be happy. It's not always that easy. Some people can't just choose happiness." And then, there was the shift. Sometimes, you'll just be sad, and have feelings, and that's okay! But you can ride it out until happy is possible again. Surrounding yourself with a balance of love, solitude, play, and mindfulness can help ease the worry and hurt. Meditation is a beautiful thing, too, and a theme I'm seeing more of lately in picture books.
