Share The Kindness In Your Heart by Michael Wong is a charming children's picture book. Kindness is such a simple thing, and it costs nothing, but it is sorely missing in today’s world. Checking on your friends to make sure they are okay, helping your family with the household chores, saying please and thank you, and so much more – this book demonstrates five ways to show kindness in actions that positively impact everyone around them. This book is not just for youngsters to read, though. It’s for parents, grandparents, and even family friends to read to them, teaching them how small acts of kindness make the world go round and make it a better place to live. Share The Kindness In Your Heart by Michael Wong is the sixth book in the Unconditional Love series. The wonderful illustrations bring this book to life, and the rhyming style makes it easy to follow and understand. Its diversity ensures that everyone is included in this amazing story, and no one is made to feel left out, no matter how “different” they may have been told they are. Kindness doesn’t cost anything, and the five acts of kindness depicted cover all the bases, especially the most important one – being kind to yourself. If more kids and adults could learn to show kindness in their everyday lives, the world really would be a much better and safer place for everyone to live, not to mention happier. This book is the perfect addition to all children’s libraries, and perhaps it should also be read in school reading groups as youngsters don’t only learn manners at home.
