About MOVE WITH ME BOOKS

The Move With Me Books Method, is a research-backed approach that transforms story time into an embodied learning adventure. The FREE Virtual Library on YouTube is accessible with just a click, with translation available in most languages—making it easy for families and classrooms everywhere to participate. Through movement-based story times, children are guided to move, breathe, and play their way through each book. The method helps young learners strengthen emotional literacy, body awareness, and a sense of belonging, while deepening their connection to the story’s themes and morals. The result is joyful, holistic learning where kids don’t just listen to stories—they live them.

 

Storytime just got a whole-body upgrade. Move With Me Books hosts a free virtual library of movement and literacy resources that brings inclusive, story-based wellness practices to children, educators, and families. Through read-alouds, yoga-inspired movement, and mindfulness reflections, we nurture emotional literacy, physical health, and a deep sense of belonging—one breath and book at a time. These are stories you can jump into. Literally.

About Us, as people.

Carly and Rachel are the creative force behind Move With Me Books, affectionately known as the official Wiggle Worms. Rachel, a kinesthetic learner and Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), thrives on movement and connection, bringing empathy and embodied wisdom to every story time. Carly, a visual learner with ADHD as her superpower, shines as the videographer, photographer, and graphic designer, weaving color, imagery, and creativity into the experience. Together, their neurodivergent strengths make story time both dynamic and inclusive, especially for children who find it challenging to sit still.

Rachel Glowacki is a mindful movement educator, writer, and thought leader in the kids' yoga field. She specializes in mindful movement for all ages and abilities and has taught since 1999. She’s an award-winning author of the Kids Yogaverse storybook apps. Rachel hopes that one day, educators will teach mindful movement regularly in schools  just like math and science! She believes that a calm brain is a learning brain, and a healthy body is a happy body, principles she shares with her students, young and old. Rachel lives with her husband and two sons in Eagle, CO.

Carly Finke is a photographer, videographer, and graphic designer who captures adventure and the beauty and calmness in nature. She is in her “happy place” when she is snowboarding. Carly creates awe and wonder in everything she does. Her images take viewers from the backcountry to rivers. Her soothing mural graces the hallway in the Surgery Center at Vail Health and elicits feelings of ease and optimism. Carly lives with her cat and lover in Vail, CO.
