Kindness Grows by Britta Teckentrup

 

From Goodreads:

Angry words cause a crack to open up and widen, but find out what happens when kindness begins to blossom in this thought-provoking book.

After reading the story to the class, process it with these or similar questions:

• Did you like the book?
• How do you think Lili feels on the cover?
• Do you have any traits that take after someone else in your family?
• How do you think Lili felt when the kids made fun of things she liked about herself?
• Do you think they meant to hurt her feelings?
• If they didn’t mean it, does it still hurt?
• Did you like her idea of the butterfly?
• Will you remember Lili’s hurt feelings the next time you hear somebody else make fun of someone and step in?

*In the back of the book are some additional activities to go along with it!
