Yuka spends the summer in Ibiza (Part 1) Exploring the island (First 2024)

YUKA THE RED PANDAⓇ series: Adventures of a curious little light worker in search of experiences, beauty, and wisdom.

YUKA SPENDS THE SUMMER IN IBIZA (Part 1) Exploring the island: Yuka spends the summer exploring the island and the different micro-regions. The days are spent hiking the many hills, stopping once in a while to admire the views, tasting a sprig of rosemary here, biting on a few leaves of thyme there, squeezing a piece of sage and taking in the aroma, smelling clusters of other wild herbs in bloom, listening to the sounds of insects, taking a quick nap in the shade of an old olive tree, and taking in the beauty of the scenery. Tonight, Yuka will watch the sunset over the old port, observe the tourists from afar, fall asleep under the stars, and dream of mandalas with colors of the Balearic sea and the majestic skies above it ...

A wordless narrative ending with words of affirmation. A mindful picture book (illustrations are reminiscent of 19th century oil paintings) created for highly sensitive souls, starseeds, neurodivergent individuals, toddlers, seniors, and anyone in between looking to downregulate their nervous system before going to sleep.

This charming series, tailored for highly sensitive souls, offers moments of tranquility, simplicity and wonder. Yuka's experiences aim to soothe, relax and down-regulate the nervous system, preparing young & wise readers for bedtime while inviting them to look forward to sleep and the realm of dreams. Through mostly wordless narratives, more experienced readers are encouraged to reconnect with their inner child, weaving their own language, words, expressions, interpretations and stories appropriate to the moment, thereby fostering imagination and allowing for personalized reflections aligned with one's culture, values, and belief systems. Yuka is not gender or racially defined so everyone can connect in a way that is inclusive to their own reality. If nothing else, the charm and poetry of the images will bring pleasure to anyone who is sensitive to this aesthetic and/or subject matter.
