Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Kindness is Free
Hira Yasin · 2023
63/100
👎 Skip It
A cheerful little book with the right instincts — rhyming text, bright pictures, and a prosocial message that fits the preschool crowd. The problem is thin dossier support: no trade reviews, unknown author credentials, and 24 pages that leave little room for narrative depth. Fine for a classroom lending shelf, but not a must-buy in a crowded kindness-book market.
