Henry is Kind: A Story of Mindfulness
by Linda Ryden (Author) and Shearry Malone (Illustrator)

Booktalk: Ms. Snowden and her class practice sending kind thoughts to the people they love, and they launch a class Kindness Project. There is only one problem: Henry can’t think of one kind thing he has done. Declaring that kindness is stupid, he stomps to the classroom door on the verge of tears, but his classmates save the day by reminding him of the kind things he has done for each of them.

Snippet: “Henry,” said Rosie, “don’t you remember when we were in the library and you reached for a book on a high shelf for me? That was kind.”
