We love any excuse to be kind, and this week is a perfect moment to practice. As we celebrate World Kindness Day, this is our chance to slow down, focus on building each other up, and keep kind thoughts in our minds.
Check out the selection of books we chose to share with you this week that focus on kindness. From a plant-based cookbook (with recipes that are off-the-charts delicious) to a book about being brave, and even one that helps children realize that kindness is a superpower, the messages are clear. We can create a culture of kindness with simple effort and practice.
Enjoy, and remember World Kindness Day is Wednesday, November 13th!
