5.0 out of 5 stars A rare gem, great for adults and children alike.
The story of the journey of a tiny water drop is simple and easy to follow for adults and children alike. But the messaging about love and kindness is profound. In my mind, it is what we hope our children will embody, and what we need to relearn as adults. The author thoughtfully provided audio clips of the mindfulness practices in her book for her readers to enjoy some peaceful moments of inflection. It is also loaded with colorful and original artwork. This is a rare gem from a Singaporean artist/author and I am planning to order a physical copy soon.

Through simple language, the author brought to life the intricacies of nature and how closely intertwined it is with our human mind and behaviour. A simple read that powerfully drives home the message on being mindful about your everyday thoughts and deeds so this could manifest into greater kindness and love, driving more purposeful living for one. The book is also filled with beautiful illustrations and mindful practices that is chicken soup for the soul. Indeed, a talented Singaporean writer and looking forward for more to come!

This book is both simple and profound; simple in that the content is presented as a children's story and profound in its use of analogies to illustrate life lessons and existential philosophy in subtle, hidden language.
Love the read and the immense love behind book is deeply felt. π
A wave of ease and peace will seep through my being whenever I pick up this book. As much as this is a book to be read, this is also a book to be felt. It brings you into a stillness and depth within yourself if you allow yourself to drop beneath the words and the beautiful illustrations. The innocence and sincerity embodied in the story is rarely found in our busy life these days. So appreciate both the genuineness and the ingenuity weaving the messages through a drop of water, the playful rituals and the author’s life experiences. May this book continue to draw many more others to step into their own innocence and stillness within.Jace Loi
Written in straightforward and simple language, on the surface this book narrates the journey of a water droplets. In the deeper level, this book aims to impart important lessons to our next generations about self-care and kindness in today's highly volatile world when the pace is so fast that one may not have the time and space to pause and smell roses along the way. The sustainability message in the book is strong too, teaching our kids to love nature, love our environment. Overall, A book you wouldnt want to miss!!!
I enjoy reading this book, it makes me smile and feels calm. Smile because the wordings and colourful illustrations reminds me of my childhood days-missed on the books that I had once read.Calm because of the quotes and rituals.This book also contains elements of Science and experiences that will enhance our knowledge in regardless of age.Hence, it is a book for parent and child bonding too.πEng Chew ε ζ²ΉπβοΈπ―

The author takes you on a journey about awareness and care. A seemingly simple tale that weaves in things that surround and support our very being on earth that we take for granted, leaving much food for thought. It enlightens the reader to give thanks to Mother Earth, to live with kindness and love. Beautiful illustration too! My kid loves the pictures! Good read!

Kudos to the author for taking the big leap to self-publish a book that aims to help her readers at a deeper level. One of the most memorable parts of the read came when she expends great effort to relate to us her about how she came to terms with her inner shackles that kept her from reaching he fullest potential. I thought that was a great way of getting to know the power and potential of mindfulness practice. We can all move towards living a less conflicted life and make the world around us a better place if we pay close attention to some of the advice offered in this book.
