About This Book
Reach for this book when you notice your toddler beginning to interact more with others and you want to plant the first seeds of prosocial behavior. Whether your child is struggling with sharing a toy or you simply want to reinforce the warm feeling that comes from helping others, this board book provides a gentle, accessible framework for understanding empathy. It moves beyond abstract definitions to show concrete examples of kindness in a young child's daily life. The book focuses on how being kind makes both the giver and the receiver feel good, fostering a sense of self-confidence and identity. Designed specifically for the birth-to-three age group, its sturdy pages and simple language make it an ideal choice for a bedtime wind-down or a morning circle time. By using the built-in mirror at the end, your child can literally see themselves as a 'kind' person, which helps solidify these positive traits into their developing sense of self.
