Review by Booklist Review

This entry in the Positive Power series, which looks at positive themes in a beginning reader format, encourages children to choose kindness. The pig-tailed narrator notices the kindness of her mother how she helps family and strangers. With that example, the girl helps her neighbor, who hurt his arm, take care of his garden; she makes a new girl at her school feel at home; and she is kind to her little brother, even though it's not always easy! A final project brings happiness to the whole neighborhood. Throughout, the word kind is repeated, emphasizing the intended message. The google-eyed characters and backgrounds are brightly colored but have a static, generic look. There's not much nuance in either text or art. But the message here, and in the simultaneously published companion book, I Am Thankful (2017), is a good one and may encourage younger children to think about how to make their world a better place.--Cooper, Ilene Copyright 2017 Booklist
