Review “From the beloved brand Highlights comes a new set of picture books for kids. One, in an A-Z format, this book will show kids all the different ways they can bring a little kindness into the world. Think helping with chores, delivering cookies to a neighbor, standing up for what’s right and more. The other does the same in counting form and featuring a diverse cast of kids and beautiful illustrations, these are both excellent books to read aloud in a classroom or at home before bedtime.” – Red Tricycle “Kindness is something everyone can relate to. . . Using 123’s and ABC’s, these books make the concept of kindness more manageable for kids and just as fun for adults. They are full of ideas of how any age can share a little love with the world. Take time to read them together and then go out as a family and put what you learned into action!” - Taylor Mariott, Medium About the Author R.A. Strong is an editor and writer.
