A Flood of Kindness, Hardback Book

A Flood of Kindness Hardback

Hardback

Description

Perfect for all children experiencing loss or grief, A Flood of Kindness gracefully confronts difficult feelings and celebrates the healing power of kindness. "The night the river jumped its banks, everything changed."So begins A Flood of Kindness, a poignant picture book that addresses grief and loss and demonstrates how kindness can bring hope.

Written in spare prose and told from an intimate first-person point of view, the story follows Charlotte, a young girl who watches floodwaters rise in her home and is forced to evacuate to a storm shelter with her parents.

Kind people she doesn't know give her food, socks and shoes to keep her feet warm, and a place to sleep.

As Charlotte adjusts to the shelter--a strange, crowded place that is not home--she grapples with feelings of anger and sadness.

But as the days go by, Charlotte starts to realize how grateful she is for the things that she does have--her parents, a cot to sleep on, food to eat--and starts looking for ways to help others in the shelter. All children deal with sadness and loss in some way, whether it stems from a natural disaster, the death of a pet, or moving to a new place.

A Flood of Kindness acknowledges those difficult feelings and helps readers process them in a healthy way.

Children will be encouraged to be kind to those who need a friend and to help others in whatever way they can, no matter how small.
