Our Book of the Month for June is Jacqueline Woodson's Each Kindness with a focus on empathy, kindness and doing the right thing, even when it's hard.
When asked why she wrote the book, Ms. Woodson responded, "At some point in our lives, we are all unkind. At some point, we are all treated unkindly. I wanted to understand this more. I think too often we believe we’ll have a second chance at kindness – and sometimes we don’t. I do believe, as Chloe’s teacher, Ms. Albert, says, that everything we do goes out, like a ripple into the world. I wrote this because I believe in kindness."
