Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Miss Molly's School of Kindness
Susanna Davidson · 2021
70/100
👍 Worth It
Usborne and Susanna Davidson deliver exactly what they promise here—fox cubs learning kindness toward others, themselves, and the planet through genuinely fun animal storytelling rather than a lecture. Rosie Reeve's illustrations and the multi-dimensional kindness framing make this a conversation starter rather than a sermon, which is the right move for a picture book. A reliable pick for families and early childhood classrooms.
