“If a young person can genuinely hold their own being with love, they will be happy, and they will help spread love throughout our world. Good Morning, I Love You, Violet! is a delightful gem of a book that gives children a simple, tried-and-true practice for befriending themselves. A gift to all the children you know, this book has the potential to touch and uplift countless hearts.” —Tara Brach, author of Radical Acceptance

“This sweet and beautifully illustrated book teaches children the most important lesson we can learn in life: how to love and support ourselves. This book draws on decades of science and weaves it into a delightful story about the power of self-compassion. I encourage all parents, teachers, and caregivers to buy this book—it has the power to transform our individual and collective lives.” —Kristin Neff, PhD, cofounder of the Center for Mindful Self-Compassion
