Every Little Kindness

A parent might reach for this book when they want to show, not just tell, their child how a small act of kindness can have a big impact. This beautiful, wordless picture book follows a single red hat as it's passed through a community, connecting a series of kind acts. A girl who has her lost dog returned is inspired to help an elderly man, who in turn helps someone else, creating a gentle, visible ripple effect. It's a perfect choice for ages 4 to 8 to spark conversations about empathy, community, and the power we all have to make someone's day a little brighter. The lack of text empowers children to interpret the story themselves, building narrative skills and emotional intelligence.
