Fantastic well-being picture book. 

Bogtrotter finds meaning by changing his routines, first by picking flowers alongside his daily runs; later by venturing outside the bog, despite his fear. 

The wise frog prompts, but doesn’t tell Bogtrotter what to do. Bogtrotter makes changes, but never stops doing what he loves. 

Plus, all the fun and whimsy to let the messages soak in subliminally, too.
