This is a book that got passed along to me, and in turn I'll be passing it along to some young readers I know. Why not show a book some love as it comes my way?

A Little SPOT of Kindness is a wickedly smart book to teach kids how and when to be kind to others (which is essentially all the time). If you put a spot on your hand, every time you see it you need to be kind to someone! The book gives many examples - saying nice things, sharing, apologizing - all of those important things we want to teach kids. The silliness, the authenticity and overall style of the book really makes this book a hit for me. I really think this is a great way to start teaching kindness to kids (probably around age 3). I highly recommend picking this book up if you want a dash of education with a whole lot of fun!

Four out of five stars. ( )

A cute little book where a little spot goes around and teaches kids how to be kind doing things like offering to play with kids that are alone, and being polite, even when it's difficult, like when someone breaks something of yours. A good little book with a good message, being kind... like the little spot of kindness. ( )
