Editorial Reviews

Review

★ "The rhythmic, repetitive text makes this book an excellent read-aloud as well as a fun and rewarding choice for children who are beginning to read independently . . . A gorgeously illustrated, cleanly written introduction to the art of kindness." —Kirkus, starred review

★ "Gestures big and small, from offering comfort to sharing, are shown in this ode to community building . . . Cheery artwork features a diverse group of children." —School Library Journal, starred review

About the Author

Sophie Beer completed a dual degree in Law and Creative Industries with distinction at Queensland University of Technology, but found the whole law thing completely wrong for her and now works primarily in children's and editorial illustration. Reveling in color, shape, and texture, she lives by one simple rule: Art should never be boring. When she's not illustrating and writing, she thinks a lot about plants, animals, music, and books.

    Kindness Makes Us Strong is an absolute gem! This book teaches such an important lesson in the simplest, most beautiful way. It’s perfect for young readers, with colorful, engaging illustrations and easy-to-understand examples of how kindness can be shown in everyday life. The message is clear and positive: kindness makes us strong as individuals and as a community.

    My little one absolutely loves it, and it’s now a favorite in our bedtime routine. The illustrations are adorable, and every page is a reminder that even small acts of kindness – like sharing, helping, or giving hugs – can make a big impact. It’s a wonderful way to introduce children to empathy and compassion, and it always sparks meaningful conversations after reading.

    Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    Sophie Beer has yet to disappoint! This book started our collection of the series.
    Kindness Makes us Strong has become a staple in our home and is read pretty much daily. My children have memorized the book and love sharing it with friends and family. I have gifted this book to friends, teachers, family, and at holiday donations. I highly recommended this book. Its uniqueness opens up conversations between reader and child on every page. Discuss the pictures, discuss another example of what is said, discuss how you did something recently that's described on the page. We are still finding new ways to discuss this book each time we open it and we have brought this book into our daily life by referring back to it when we see kindness in the world.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A colourful and accessible intro to kindness for little children
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 27, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    The media could not be loaded.
    My two year old daughter and I love this book. The colours and illustrations are bold and attractive and provide really lovely examples of kindness; examples that even little kiddos will appreciate.

    There aren’t too many words per page, and the book itself isn’t too long, meaning it’s not too much of an attention-ask for young ones. It’s felt suitable for my two year old, but I think she would have enjoyed it from even younger. The combination of not too much text and and lovely images allows for lots of conversation with your little one, i.e. pointing out what’s going on or spotting different objects.

    From a parenting perspective, I love the topic. It’s simplistic, but effective. It provides nice examples of kindness to bring the concept alive. My daughter and I now regularly point out acts of kindness when we’re out and about, whether that’s things we, or others are doing. She’s even repeated some of the acts of kindness in the book. Giving a ‘friendly hello’ at the park is particularly heart warming.

    For those looking for a story, there is none to be found, but I’ve found it to be a lovely addition to our little library regardless.

    My 10 month old loves this book, and I know it will grow with him in the coming years. Lovely, colourful graphics that he enjoys looking over. The pages are thicker than paper but not as thick as a board book, but can handle a bit of heavy-handedness.
    A great message behind the book. Would recommend.
