YOGA BUNNY

Relax and unwind with Yoga Bunny in this debut picture book from author and illustrator Brian Russo.

It's a perfect day for yoga, and Bunny is practicing his poses and wishes his friends would do yoga with him! But Lizard is too tired, Fox is in a rush, and Bird has the hiccups. Will Bunny ever be able to get his friends to slow down and realize that yoga just might be the solution to their problems?

Yoga Bunny teaches young readers how to do beginner yoga poses such as Tree Pose, Forward Fold, and Downward Dog. The majority of yoga picture books for children focus on the instructional aspect of yoga and yoga poses while Yoga Bunny is a traditional picture book character.

Brian Russo is debut author and illustrator and also works in animation. His beautiful illustrations are soothing and work perfectly with the relaxing, mindfulness theme of the book.

Brian Russo has been drawing since he can remember. He grew up in Short Hills, NJ, then moved to New York where he earned a degree in Film from NYU. Afterwards, he discovered something he loved even as much as drawing and making films.... doing yoga. He earned a teaching certificate from ‘Yoga to the People’ in 2010, during which time he developed the Yoga Bunny illustrations. Since then, he’s received hundreds of emails from people all over the world, praising his illustrations of a bunny doing yoga. Brian is thrilled that his artwork has reached so many people, and is excited for where he and the bunny will go next. This is Brian’s first book. You can visit him online at www.bunnyoga.com.
