Odette is an ant who questions her place in the colony, where all she does is work. Over-stressed, one day, she decides to leave the anthill to experience the freedom of creating her own world. When Odette meets Marcus, a mouse lost in a field of flowers, she decides to help him find his way home. Together, they walk a path unknown, imagine their way home, give joy and receive love. They discover simple ways to feel better. Inspired by her journey and this wonderful friendship, and determined to live with her beloved colony, Odette finds her way back home with a new sense of being and community.
Odette’s Alphabet is a children's fiction and illustrated book with a mindful story that will take parents and children to the place within the heart where we sometimes fall short on words and explanations.
The book offers a map to handle big emotions, with kindness, unity and courage. Fun and easy activities support each of the chapters accompanied by letters to encourage further exploration and deepen children’s practice for more conscious state of the mind and body. These would be found in a beautiful deck of cards, to go along with the book.
Odette is not only for children and their parents, it is the perfect story book in school settings, kids yoga studios, yoga teachers, and anyone interested in raising their awareness of this dis-ease on a collective level. To feel whole, all the parts of us need to be integrated. This is what Odette shows through her journey. She embraces who she is and so does Marcus. Adults and children will enjoy a renewed sense of connection to themselves and each other, further reinforcing the sense of belonging we all need to nourish and develop.
"Resting deep inside each one of us is a peaceful, calm, and happy place. We feel it when we give a hug, when we spend time in nature, when we play with our friends, when we laugh, & when we lay in bed at night before we fall asleep. But, every morning when we wake up, we never know what the next moment will bring – a celebration or a challenge, an excitement or a fear, a disappointment or a happiness.
We can’t control the world around us – but we always have the ability to bring our self back to that safe place inside of us… the place of the present moment… of calm… and of joy. Using the alphabet, the magical ant Odette & her new pal Marcus take us on a beautiful
journey of discovery where we can find our way back home to peace, happiness, and the sweet, safe, special space that rests inside – through spending time in nature, meeting new friends, celebrating our differences, listening to our heart, thinking good thoughts, and connecting to our breath.
It is a magnificent journey of discovery & in the process we’ll learn to meditate and live our lives from the inside out! Have fun!!!"
–davidji, author of Secrets of Meditation
"Odette's Alphabet is a playful introduction to mindfulness that can be helpful to children and adults alike. My analytical son who is not easily impressed gave it the highest praise when he said, 'This book is awesome. I wish I had this book when I was a kid."
-John Paul Abner, Ph.D., Parent Child Interaction Therapy International Master Trainer, Professor of Psychology, Milligan University; John-Phillip Abner, film student, Syracuse University.
"When it comes to children's books there are loads of options, millions to choose from but Sandrine's mindfulness, kindness, and tools we can use throughout our life are a gift to children. Imagine if we all had the awareness that we do now, the tools to help manage our emotions, mind, and stress. Its woven in such a clever way throughout Odette's Alphabet for children to comprehend and parents to share with their little ones. We can all learn from Odette's Alphabet no matter our age... the messages have no limit. The world would be a calmer place if we all practiced them a little more often. Sandrine we look forward to a future series, children need more of this!!!"
- Sara Wright, business strategist and connector
“I love Odette’s Alphabet and think it is the perfect activity for me and my boys to share together each day. We all feel stressed (adults and children) and this is a fun way to help find our peace and presence to start our day. I picture doing this as a monthly activity - each letter being a new way to start our day together. Sweet, simple and easy for any age to understand. A great reminder to stop and be present. Well done!”
-Amanda Judge, mother of two, owner and designer of UntamedPetals
"This book is wonderful and filled with love and light. The world needs this."
-Valerie Oula, vibrational energy director at The Well
