In Spanish. Meena is excited about the class play, a new and improved version of Red Riding Hood.

Meena is excited about writing and making sets for the class play, an improved version of Red Riding Hood. But when her teacher insists Meena be one of the trees in the forest, she is miserable. I can’t, Meena says. I’m too clumsy.

The next day at the Indian store with her mother, Meena sees a yoga class underway in the back. Soon Mrs. Vohra, the owner, convinces Meena to try the new children’s class. Over time Meena learns to breathe slowly and deeply-in, and out-and to make herself quiet inside. She learns to move in smooth, slow movements. But at school during play rehearsals, Meena still has trouble being a quiet, steady tree.

The night of the play, Meena trips on her branches as she walks onstage. Drawing on what she learned in yoga class, Meena quiets herself and begins to move slowly and carefully. Turning near disaster into triumph, she becomes the happiest tree in the forest.

Meena esta emocionada de estar trabajando con su clase en una version mejorada de La Caperucita Roja. Pero cuando su maestra insiste que Meena sea uno de los arboles, se pone muy descontenta.

El siguiente dia cuando esta en la tienda india con su mama, Meena ve una clase de yoga en progreso al fondo. Dentro de poco la senora Vohra, la duena de la tienda, convience a Meena a que trate la nueva clase para ninos. Con tiempo, Meena aprende respirar lentamente y profundamente–adentro y afuera–para poder ponerse quieta por dentro. Aprende a usar movimientos despacios y fluidos. Pero durante los ensayos para la obra, Meena todavia batalla con ser un arbol quieto y firme.

La noche del estreno de la obra, Meena se tropieza en sus propias ramas caminando al escenario. Usando lo que aprendio en la clase de yoga, Meena se aquieta y empieza a moverse despacio y fluidamente. Convertiendo un casi desastre a un triunfo, se vuelve el arbol mas feliz del bosque.
