Where Goodness Grows: A Story About Kindness and Community

By Malissa Mays

A rhyming picture book about kindness, empathy, and community.

Milo doesn't plant seeds you can see-his are seeds of kindness. With each gentle rhyme, children follow along with each small act of kindness: a smile, a helping hand, a thoughtful gift. One by one, those acts begin to grow, spreading joy through the neighborhood until the whole community blossoms.
