This children’s book is aimed for ages 5-7 and it delivers spot on with that age group. The illustrations are colorful and help to completely convey the story presented. The illustrations also show diversity among the children.
Alex is our main character and she loves being a different sort of kid ( all the way to the way she styles her hair!), but she is also kind which includes being accepting of others, being caring and brave. When new student Jon joins that class, he is also different: He is from another country and does not speak English. The other kids treat him differently. Alex feels bad about the way jon is being treated and she befriends him. Over the course of the story, she shows the others kids that despite their differences that they can all become friends.
This book is also meant to be an activity book. There is an introduction to parents/caregivers and teachers telling that this short book is meant to be the start of deeper conversations with your young child. This is more than a ‘read to your kid’ book. There are also ‘kindness challenges’ at the end for kids to put what they learn into practice. Examples of different type of kindness are given. There are also websites given to help parents/ caregivers/ educators have more resources for help with teaching children all about kindness.
I received a copy from the publisher via Amazon Vine.
