Tonight, something is different. When Puff arrives, it's not to teach or guide - it's to ask for help. Puff has found a lost star, cold and dark, and your breath is the only thing that can wake it up.
Breathe in slowly - one, two, three. Watch the first point begin to glow. Hold it, just for a moment - the star at its brightest. Breathe out - one, two, three. One point, lit. Warm and gold. Four more to go.
Each breath lights another point - until a setback. The third point flickers. Can a deeper breath bring it back? With five points blazing, the star grows enormous, lifts them both into the constellation, and carries one sleepy child to the most beautiful place in the universe.
Breathe Like a Star introduces star breathing - a 5-point technique that pairs a slow inhale, a gentle breath-hold at the peak, and a slow exhale. The pause gives little bodies time to fully receive each calming breath. And for the first time in the series, Puff needs the child's help - giving little readers real agency and purpose in the breathing practice.
Perfect for:
- Little ones who love a bedtime breathing routine
- Children ready to try something new - the pause is a genuine skill step up
- Fans of Breathe Like a Cloud and Breathe Like a Wave
- Preschool and kindergarten classrooms
A Note for Grown-Ups includes the complete star breathing guide - with a star-tracing tip that makes the technique even more engaging for little hands.
Book 3 of the Breathe & Dream series - one technique per book, one magical world, one child who always finds their way to sleep. Ages 3-5.
