Description

“A playfully profound picture book that does its part in passing on good feelings.” —Kirkus Reviews Because Amelia smiles as she skips down the street, her neighbor Mrs. Higgins smiles too, and decides to send a care package of cookies to her grandson Lionel in Mexico. The cookies give Lionel an idea, and his idea inspires a student, who in turn inspires a ballet troupe in England! And so the good feelings that started with Amelia’s smile make their way around the world. Putting a unique spin on “what goes around comes around“ Caldecott Honoree David Ezra Stein’s charmingly illustrated story reminds us that adding even a small dose of kindness into the world is sure to spur only more kindness—which could eventually make its way back to you!
