Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
How Kind!
Mary Murphy · 2022
78/100
👍 Worth It
A warm, well-crafted board book that teaches cause-and-effect kindness in a way toddlers genuinely understand — one act of sharing sets off a whole chain, and young children feel the logic click. Bright illustrations and minimal text make it a strong lap-reading choice for parents of 2-to-5-year-olds.
