#1 New York Times bestseller!
Companion to I Am Love and I Am Peace
"An age-appropriate and hopeful look at what it means to be a connected human on this planet." ―School Library Journal

Being human means we are full of possibility. We learn, we dream, we wonder at the world around us. But we also make mistakes and can feel fearful or sad.

From the bestselling team that created I Am Yoga, I Am Peace, I Am Love, and I Am One comes a hopeful celebration of the human family. A colorfully and warmly illustrated book for young children, I Am Human affirms that we can make good choices by acting with compassion and having empathy for others and ourselves.

A child in a red-striped shirt and blue jeans explores the possibilities open to them as a human being. Beginning with "I was born. A miracle! One of billions but unique!" the text lists activities ("I am always learning"; "I have BIG dreams").

The child explores the difficult sides of being human, such as feelings of fear and sadness. They can "make choices" and "move forward" with "thoughtfulness" (for example, giving flowers to a friend they hurt), learning to live with kindness, compassion, listening, and connection. "I am full of hope. I am human."

When we find common ground, we can feel connected to the great world around us and mindfully strive to be our best selves.

Includes a guided meditation.
