*I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.*

When We Are Kind is a beautifully illustrated children's book that is profound in its seeming simplicity. Each page provides lessons and moments of reflection for young children, as well as the adults reading with them. I loved the calming nature of this book, and the illustrations reflect what people in the world actually look like. I really appreciated the parts of the book that make the reader reflect on being kind to themselves, and how acts of kindness can have other positive effects, such as feeling comforted and happy.

Would definitely recommend adding this beautiful book to any young child's book collection or any library collection!
