Brilliantly reflective, awakening and full of comfort. This is an offering of beauty.
A compassionate guide through the journey of childhood, crafted with wisdom and warmth by the author.
Ashworth's inspirational verse brings hope and joy to familiar situations. School, family, friendship, pets and the outside world are all addressed with the underlying message: 'Kindness is like any sport: practice makes you better.'
Beautiful. . . bright, colourful and dynamic illustrations throughout from McGuinness add extra dimension as they are cleverly woven around the poems' texts. This warm collection can be revisited as the child reader grows, adding a mindful boost to their everyday lives.
