Noah's birthday is coming. He wants a number of gifts but the one he wishes for most is to grow his hair long and thick. Yang's illustrations inclusively depict regular folks in a diverse neighborhood. Backmatter includes questions for conversation starters between parent and child.
Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss.
This book begins with the old "Saving a Starfish" story, but then expands it outwards - showing how a single act of kindness can inspire other single acts without being overly didactic. Great illustrations as well.
