Have you been kind to someone today? Do you know what kindness is? In Lisa Ayotte’s Kindness… Little Things We Do Can Make A BIG Difference!, the Punny Peeps are on a mission to share some of the things they do to show kindness. Did you know that just sharing a smile can be a sign of kindness. Your smile brightens the day for someone who might need a little cheering up. Kindness also means helping out with chores around the house, like the laundry or the dishes. It can also mean leaving a treat for the delivery person or surprising your teacher with a gift. Being kind is oh-so easy to do. And the best part of being kind is that it makes you feel good, too.

Lisa Ayotte’s picture book, Kindness … LittleThings We Do Can Make A BIG Difference!, takes our favorite Punny Peeps characters, the ones who love to share a punny story or silly pun, and uses them to teach us about something very important: kindness. The language is very simple to help young readers follow along. Each page is a new kindness idea, told in two lines, with a bright, bold, and colorful illustration of the Punny Peeps performing the kindness task. With all the kindness ideas being shared, the young reader will be excited to share some ideas of their own. Kindness goes beyond the smiles, the thoughtful words like please and thank you, and the simple greetings like hello. Kindness is everything we do for the well-being of others and ourselves. Yes, we have to be kind to ourselves, too. Loved the book; I always love these Punny Peeps characters.
