Patrick McKeown has written a new book for kids. Behind the fairy tale is the physician-developed Buteyko Method, adapted for children by breathing expert Patrick McKeown and instructor Katie-Louise Daly.

Nine-year-old David can't keep up with his big sister Erin - because he breathes through his mouth, all day and night. Then he meets Argo, guardian of the Breathing Tree, and everything starts to change.

Is my child breathing well?

This book helps answer that question, and gives children and families simple, practical ways to build healthier breathing habits together.

In the book, your child learns:

• 👃 To breathe through their nose, day and night

• 🌳 Magic Nose Unblocking to ease a stuffy nose

• 🐬 Dolphin Breathing, a gentle game played while walking

• 🐭 Mouse Breathing, so quiet the cat can’t hear.
