Description

The citizens of Sad-Grumpy will not smile, and they will not say hello. When Frankie finds out that Sad-Grumpy has no beautiful flowers or green, leafy trees, she calls on her friends the Purplees to deliver the extra-special ingredients for a Smile Machine. By the light of the Halloween moon, Frankie and Peaches set off on a mission to give the gloomy Sad-Grumpys their very first, very nice day. 

Because sometimes the best way to help change the world is to start small

The Smile Machine is the third book in the series Frankie and Peaches: Tales of Total Kindness. The series was created to help children explore the concepts of empathy, compassion, and kindness, and encourage them to believe they can have a positive impact on their world.

Brave, big-hearted Frankie and her floppy-eared pal Peaches have a very long can't-wait-to-do list: grow butterflies, make marshmallow shoes, grow a smile machine, make some furry-feathery friends and end the math Monday blues. But their most important mission of all is to break the chain of bad feelings, turn frowns into smiles and bullies into buddies. Follow along with Frankie, Peaches and the Thanks-Welcome kindness crew in this five-part K-4 series and find out why it's cool to be kind!

Frankie and Peaches Tales of Total Kindness is published by Favorite World Press and was written by Lisa S. French, author of the Eco-Pig series (Abdo Publishing), and illustrated by award-winning artist Srimalie Bassani.

Favorite World Press is an American Forests small business partner. For every print or e-book purchased from the Frankie and Peaches Tales of Total Kindness series, Favorite World Press will plant one tree.
