| A Short Course in Kindness | ||
| Book Review by Author/Illustrator Ross Anthony | ||
|
This is a sweet little book that does a great job reminding while at times teaching us to be kind. If you mistakenly think you're kind because you're mostly nice or polite -- think again. Of the many useful lessons and reminders in this book, the section on Kindness vs. Niceness is the one that rings the strongest. Written with a good heart and good care and plenty of real world examples --it's a pleasure to read. I'm adding this to the list of books I get extra copies of so that I can give them away. "Why is it that we can be immensely kind to others yet so hard on ourselves? Why don't we realize that when we choose kindness as a way to walk in the world, the path includes kindness to ourselves? Being kind to humanity includes being kind to ourselves." www.LMPress.comRead more Book Reviews by Author/Illustrator Ross Anthony. |
