Grow Kind is another title published in conjunction with the American Psychological Association. These books address issues and subjects that will lead to positive growth for children.
In this title, that is colorfully and very cheerfully illustrated, a young girl learns about being kind to others. This is shown is several ways; there is allowing her older sister to sleep late, picking the bounty from a garden and sharing it with neighbors and classmates. The protagonist also gives food to someone who is standing by the road and is hungry.
As always, the story is followed by sections for adults that further enhance the lesson of the story and that help those who interact with children to understand their needs. I found this title to be another good entry in a good series.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest

I received an advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.
This book is a lovely picture book teaching children to think about others feelings, wants and needs sometimes, before themselves.
The book asks the children reading it two questions - one at the beginning and one at the end which encourage the child to talk about thise who care for them and what they think and feel.
There are some good discussion points and pointers at the end of the book for parents and care givers to think about and encourage in children too.

Sweet story of a very caring young boy who travels around his neighborhood and school giving away fruits and veggies from his garden! It's spreads cheer wherever he goes, from his family, to his cranky neighbor, to his school. I am sure most littles will enjoy this tale. I liked the illustrations- bright, detailed, so pleasant! great book!

Thank you netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was a delightful and colourful storybook illustrating how a little girl's garden can bring so much joy and happiness to those around her. Perfect for parents of toddlers and older children who want to teach their kids on the importance of kindness and emotional intelligence.
