Book Review: Stories, Songs and Stretches: Creating Playful Storytimes with Yoga and Movement

Abstract

Katie Scherrer, a well-known library consultant and a registered yoga teacher, has combined her expertise in these two fields to provide librarians with a manual to guide them on how to present yoga in storytime “to engage children and families through embodied play” (x). A brief introductory chapter gives a history of the development of modern yoga and explains the benefits of introducing yoga to children.
