Book Synopsis



Winner at the 2020 Independent Publisher Book Awards. A heartening story about connecting to nature and its healing properties.

The little girl of the forest embraces you, takes you by the hand, and invites you to immerse yourself in her magical world. The trees surround you. You walk in peace. The light filters through the leaves, in myriad green and ochre tones. It feels as if your feet are putting down roots, connecting you with the vibrant world around you. You are surrounded by birdsong, and the sound of the wind in the treetops... You are bathing in the forest.

Walking through the forest has multiple benefits. It helps regulate our blood pressure, slow down the heart rate, reduce stress, improves our mood and tones our immune system. You will sleep better and your good mood will increase.

If you ever feel gray, sad, agitated, open the pages of Bathing in the Forest and feel the warm embrace of the girl who lives there...



Review Quotes




"...the little girl encourages readers to relax and open their senses to the natural healing experience found in wooded areas. The heart's story is in the right place." --Kirkus Reviews

"This picture book is a true celebration of nature, not only because of its greenish illustrations that capture the essence of the trees, plants and animals that live inside this ecosystem, but also because of the coherent editorial proposal attached to the certification "Cradle to Cradle", ensuring that none of the pages of this sensitive story comes from water, trees or chlorine." --Canal Lector

Nívola Uyà is an Spanish award-winning illustrator and visual artist, with a degree in Environmental Sciences. She loves nature as much as illustration and, whenever possible, combines both worlds.
