Why read it?

1 author picked The Kindness Quilt as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I liked the way the teacher in this story used Aesop’s fable of the Lion and the Mouse to encourage her class to discuss kindness. She extended the discussion to a class project–making a Kindness Quilt with pictures they draw of the kind acts they perform.

The illustrations of the characters–all rabbits—are simply charming, made from various patterns and colors of cut paper.

From Pat's list on encourage kindness in children.
