Plot Summary
Somewhere in the world each day, people just like you are acting in kind, peaceful, loving ways. Perhaps they are visiting someone who is old, teaching a little sister to ride a bike, or sharing an experience with a friend from a different culture.With its poetic text and appealing, vibrant photographs, this book shows some of the simple ways in which any child or grownup can make the world a better place.
Reviews
"A greeting card of a book illustrated with full-color photographs of multiethnic children and adults. . . . The book is visually appealing and offers a proactive, if somewhat simplistic, approach to creating a better world." School Library Journal
"The book is a bit like the good deeds it describes—a modest step in the right direction; the author wisely averts didacticism through her use of cogent, everyday examples." Publishers Weekly
