Purchase options and add-ons

One good turn deserves another - and another - in this universal tale about the contagiousness of being kind.

Hen gives Pig an unexpected present. "How kind!" says Pig. Pig is so touched, in fact, that he decides to do something kind too. So Pig gives Rabbit a gift. "How kind!" says Rabbit, who does something kind for Cow, who is kind to Cat, who wants to be kind in turn. Where will all of this kindness lead?

With electric-bright colors enhancing the simplest of words and pictures, Mary Murphy shows the youngest of children that what goes around comes around - especially when it starts with a generous heart.

About the Author

Mary Murphy has an advanced diploma in Visual Communications and has written and illustrated a number of children’s books, including her lift-the-flap, pull-the-tab book about friendship, ROXIE AND BO TOGETHER. In addition to creating books, Mary Murphy teaches illustration. HOW KIND!, she says, is about "the great feelings kindness generates, for giver and receiver. It’s about how kindness spreads - and how givers always receive. Try shouting ‘How kind!’ whenever you read it in this book."

    本が大きく、絵も文字も見やすい。絵はシンプルだけど、かわいらしくて温かみがある。

    HenがPigに卵をひとつあげたことから、"How kind!"と感動したPigが、自分もほかの人に親切なことをしたくなり、

    "kindness"がどんどん広がっていくお話。とてもほのぼのしたお話で、大人の私も気に入りました。

    英文については、毎ページ"How kind!"のフレーズが出てくる一方で、同じ内容を色々な言い方で表現しているので、

    英語を身に付けるのにも良いと思います。　

    幼稚園児くらいまでに読み聞かせてあげるのに、レベル、内容共にとても良い絵本だと思います。
