Imperfectly Perfect Posey: A wobbly yoga story

Posey is sure she will be amazing at yoga. After all, her name is Pose-y.

But when the poses do not come as easily as she imagined, Posey begins to wobble, fall, and question whether she belongs on the mat at all. With a little patience, a few deep breaths, and encouragement from her teacher and friends, Posey discovers something surprising.

Maybe, "perfect's not the point."

Imperfectly Perfect Posey, written by Lizzie Brooks and illustrated by Enni Heikura, is a joyful picture book about mindfulness, resilience, and learning to breathe through life’s wobbly moments. With warmth, humor, and gentle encouragement, this story invites children to embrace mistakes, listen to their bodies, and find confidence in simply showing up.
