Rhyming couplets use the alphabet to simply explain the abstract concept of kindness. Each letter of the alphabet stands for a word that adds nuance to the notion while line drawings of pink-cheeked stuffed animals--bear, bunny, elephant, mouse, lion, and giraffe--illustrate the behavior. The verses hint at exactly how to act kindly. Some are concrete: "Ii is for inviting everyone to play." Some suggest attitudes that facilitate kindness. For example, "Bb is for believing things will be okay in the end!" and "Hh is for hope--tomorrow's another day!" While many might take issue with the simplistic assertion that "Ee is for everyone--we are all the same," taken as a whole, the book will lead even the youngest toddlers to the message. Organizationally, the book devotes one page each to 11 letters while 14 others share pages. "Zz is sleeping peacefully when your day of kindness is through" sprawls across a final double-page spread, showing all the animals fast asleep. Creating an ABC book is harder than this makes it look. The true test is what is chosen to represent Q, X, Y, and Z. "Quiet times," "Yes I can," and the aforementioned "zzz"s ably rise to the challenge. "Xx is for kisses" is a bit of a stretch but understandable. Pastel backgrounds, uncluttered design, and unforced rhymes keep the focus on the concept. Light, friendly, and not at all preachy--a gentle win for a kinder world.
