My Magic Breath: Finding Calm Through Mindful Breathing by Nick Ortner and Alison Taylor
…and like magic, you can feel better just by breathing! Sometimes it’s hard to feel happy. But with this interactive picture book, children breathe along as they learn how to make angry or sad thoughts disappear.
In a world that is sometimes too busy, with too many things going on, My Magic Breath will help steer children into a serene space of mindfulness, self-awareness, and balance.

Review: Deep breathing is a tool that I have taught my son to use to deal with frustration, anger, or sadness. This lesson was even more supported when Daniel Tiger taught him to, “When you feel so mad you want to roar, take a deep breath and count to four.” We use this mantra often to help him refocus when his brain is getting fogged by an emotion. Additionally, some of Trent’s favorite books are interactive picture books like Press Here! or Don’t Touch This Book. My Magic Breath combines these connections in Trent’s life into one! It not only promotes meaningful breathing in a fun way, it turns it interactive through the illustrations and second person narrative. This is going to be a book that is easily going to jump into our picture book regulars, and I cannot wait to be able to be able to tell Trent to “Think about what happened. Now keep it in your mind! Close your eyes and take a deep breath in. Now blow out your breath…”
Teachers’ Tools for Navigation: Anxiety is something that many teachers now find themselves talking to their students about because so much pressure and stress are on kids these days either socially, academically, or at home. My Magic Breath will be a perfect book to introduce at the beginning of the year then use throughout the year to help students understand and deal with their emotions.
Discussion Questions:
- When do you feel the most anxious? Angry? Scared? Sad? Try using mindful breathing during these times.
- How do you picture your magic breath would look when you blow out during these times? What about a happy time?

Overall, it did not live up to my expectations and I would not recommend it.
2. Michael - 1 star - The Penn and Teller magic props set was a waste of money. The props were poorly made and broke easily after just a few uses. The tricks themselves were also unimpressive and lacked any real wow factor. It felt like a cheap knockoff of better magic sets on the market. I regret purchasing this set and would advise others to look elsewhere for a magic set that actually delivers on its promises.

I would not recommend this set to anyone looking for a challenging and long-lasting magic experience.
