Great story about sharing and patience

"The Kindness Seed is an adorable book about paying it forward and sharing your gifts or talents so everyone can prosper. But there's also a message about patience that shouldn't be ignored. Because Anna plants seeds, she will have to wait years to see her gift to the community come to fruition. We live in a world of instant gratification. Nobody likes to wait. But sometimes that's exactly what we need to do so good things can grow in their time. Anna eventually sees how her gifts bless the community. They started as tiny acorns (that she had to plant on her own) and grew into mighty oak trees, which are also symbols of great virtues on their own! So much to talk about and learn from with this children's book. Great job!"

A little goes a long way

"The author, Kara Mullane, does a wonderful job making the point that a little goes a long way. I love how Kara always interacts with the readers at the end of her stories. Asking the readers to do something similar to what the character did or share what they would do in the same situation."

The Future is in the Hands of the Children

"And if they learn from The Kindness Seed, then there's hope for a more-than-positive future. Passing along to others the good fortune that may fall your way is a worthy lesson to learn and share. The idea of trying to better your world, even if the results are not evident until years later, is laudable wisdom to impart on children. Mullane does a terrific job weaving these ideas into an entertaining tale. The art work is great, too! This is a solid follow up to the author's first book, "Great Explorers." Nicely done Kara A. Mullane. You have me waiting for more from you!"

Spark Kindness!

"A lovely story paired with soft, watercolor illustrations that encourages young readers to think about what they can do to bring joy into the world--no matter how seemingly small. The Kindness Seed shows us how tiny, thoughtful deeds can transform into outcomes with big, meaningful impacts--just like how acorns become mighty oaks with time and care. Kids will finish this book inspired and uplifted, and perhaps most importantly, empowered to spread kindness in their own homes and communities.

A great addition to schools, homes, and libraries. Fits nicely with SEL curricula. Perfect for Arbor Day and Earth Day!"

Sharing is Caring

"This is a great book to show the importance of giving back to community. It only takes a seed, or in this instance an acorn, to set up for future success. Well done Kara Mullane!"
