Big Words for Little People: Kindness

by Helen Mortimer

This little book on Kindness is one in an exciting new series exploring big topics with young children in a way that feels good. Using carefully chosen words and phrases, such as 'giving' or 'taking turns', it creates a special moment for grown-ups and young children to focus on what it means to be kind in everyday life. Children can discover and understand new words to help them to talk about the ups and downs of first experiences and new emotions with confidence.



The engaging art style, fun characters and hardback picture book feel make this series accessible and perfect to share. Each book includes reassuring tips on how to enjoy these books, encourage conversation and build language confidence. This series is special not only because it focuses on feelings in a child-friendly way, but also because it's from Oxford, it's packed with educational goodness that helps children develop and grow.

This is a basic book about kindness.
It is written so younger children can understand it.
Simple pictures

I like the main points of this book, but it has so many ideas that are not tied together. It made it hard for my toddler to stay focused on the book. It doesn’t have a traditional plot. Instead, each page has an example of sharing, understanding, listening, helping, etc.

[Brittany Winegarner]

Such a cute book using illustrations as well as simple verbiage to help children understand what goes into kindness.

[Lara Bate]

A great book to teach children about kindness.
