A POWERFUL MESSAGE, SWEETLY ILLUSTRATED. A SMILE OF A BOOK.

This book speaks to the hearts of children as well as adults. Mr. Poltarnees prefaces the book with the words, "The Kindness Book is blatantly moral." We all need reminders to do the right thing. The book accomplishes that mission with beauty and sensitivity so reflective of this author.The book is small, a size that feels good in your hands. The words are powerful quotes; poignantly visual with pictures of babies, dogs, old and young people expressing kind acts. Using illustrations from the late eighteen-hundreds to the early nineteen-hundreds, one is immediately touched by such scenes as a child bringing a bouquet of flowers to a grandmother, or Mother Bunny administering first aid to Baby Bunny, wiping a tear away. The message I received was reflective and immediate. Kindness is powerful in its simplicity.I have purchased additional copies of "The Kindness Book" to keep on hand as gifts for little visitors and sometimes even little visitors moms and dads. This book will touch your heart.Like all of the authors creations, buying one is impossible, you must buy extra for giving. When you do KINDNESS multiplies.
