Publisher's summary

Kindness is at the core of developing good character in children.

Kindness is certainly at the heart of many of the good character traits we want to see developed in our children. When we think about acts of empathy, compassion, and selflessness for example, they are all expressions of kindness in one way or another.

Kindness Is... helps you explore these themes with your child through a fun and entertaining story. Join ZaZa in her adventures across the world as she discovers for herself what kindness means.

This children’s audiobook is a great resource for parents and educators. It includes fun kindness activities at the end to help your child discover what kindness means to them and embed their learning on the importance of this good character trait.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great for Littles

This is a very cute lesson for Littles. It’s also a good length as they would not be able to sit and listen to this or really anything for a long time frame. I felt it was well written and easy to understand for younger age children.

GREAT Book Series!

I love the idea of teaching kids what's important in life through stories. But this book on kindness is great even for adults. Love the three ways kindness is expressed in this story. Also love the sound effects and music. Looking forward to the other books in the series! I think this would be a great bedtime listen so the kiddos go off to sleep with something beautiful to think about.

Great book to understand kindness

I really enjoyed the journey through this book of how the character learned what kindness is. At first she thinks she knows the answer but through different interactions with others she really starts to understand the different types of kindness. Easy to follow book for kids to listen to. Short and concise and would be great to listen to in the car or even putting your little ones to bed.

If you find a book with a bigger heart, let me know! This is great book to play for kids, and I'm looking forward to the rest of the series. Practical talk about how to be a good human being, in a sweet, warm and relatable way. It's a gem.
