truly the most incredible book to inspire creativity and encourage perseverance. I read this book to countless classrooms of students, and always the same, in awe, response.

Written and illustrated by my sister (!!), this book breaks down the big, abstract concept of KINDNESS into a very relatable, kid-friendly concept. Highly recommended for early elementary aged children.
