When Mama Grows With Me
In When Mama Grows with Me, a mama and her son create their own garden, starting with just a few small seeds and ending with a beautiful display of flowers. They observe how pollinators help the earth stay healthy, learn how to care for plants, and meet other critters that live in their garden, all while playfully shaping their bodies into yoga poses inspired by nature. Not only do Mama and her son learn valuable lessons about their garden, but along the way, they also learn to practice patience.
By pairing lessons with movement, Rebecca Wheeler helps young readers make connections between the natural world and their own emotional experiences. Learn the value of patience and practice some fun yoga poses in this beautifully illustrated children’s book.
Includes a step-by-step guide to each yoga pose!

About the Author
Rebecca Wenrich Wheeler was raised in West Point, a small town in the Tidewater region of Virginia. From the moment she submitted her first short story to a young author’s contest in second grade, Rebecca knew she wanted to be a writer. Her love of writing led her to earn a BA in English and an MEd in English education. She spent several years as a high school teacher, during which she also developed a passion for mental health advocacy. Rebecca completed an MA in professional counseling and now works in school-based mental health and as a college adjunct psychology instructor.
Rebecca also teaches yoga for the young and the young at heart, and she likes to infuse yoga and breathwork in her counseling practice wherever she can. She believes the most valuable use of her time is teaching youth how to love and care for each other and the world around them. Her stories share this focus on positive relationships and a love of nature. Rebecca now lives in Durham, North Carolina, with her husband, two children, and two spoiled Siamese cats.
When Mama Grows with Me is Rebecca’s third book. Her first picture book in the yoga series, When Daddy Shows Me the Sky released November 2021, and her first YA novel, Whispering Through Water, released January 2023.

Fellow writers, you know creating a story requires a mix of craft and graft that many of us find a lonely business that tests commitment and tenacity. So, wise words from published authors and conversations with other writers can be the boost we need to begin our story, take it to the next stage or reach The End.
If you’re invested in a writing project, at the concept stage or a work in progress, then DEVON WRITING RETREATS offer time and space to develop your writing guided by published authors who share your passion for your genre. Each residential retreat includes workshops, one-to-one tutorials and guest speakers with plenty of time to write, enjoy the company of your peers, and our fully catered, locally sourced meals.
So, writing community, reTREAT yourself!
UPCOMING RETREATS
November 2023 to April 2024 writing retreats include Writing Crime Fiction (with guest speaker, Helen Hollick) Writing Romantic Fiction and Writing Psychological Suspense and Thrillers with a dazzling array of bestselling authors and guest speakers in their genre.
Throughout Summer 2024 Writing for Wellbeing and Writing Memoir will focus on the personal benefits of writing and the joy of sharing work with others and writers on our Writing Historical Fiction retreat will explore the past in a house steeped in history (hosted by Helen Hollick and Annie Whitehead)
Our unique Grade Two listed property is the perfect place to immerse yourself in your writing in the peace and beauty of the Devon countryside.
Do come and join us!
