School Library Journal“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.” –

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,
