About
In a beautifully illustrated new children's book, kids and their parents will discover the many reasons people are happy and sad-and how you can turn that frown upside down to make someone's day brighter!
Children may find it hard to respond when parents, friends, and siblings get down in the dumps! In Muriel Fitzpatrick's Just One Smile, they can learn a helpful lesson in kindness. The narrative encourages everyone to make a difference in other's lives just through their smile.
The book starts by explaining, in simple terms, how every person feels both happy and sad feelings at different times. It provides relatable scenarios that young children can recognize and understand, like:
• Someone is sick.
• Someone is lonely.
• Someone is hungry.
• Someone isn't being treated nicely.
Then, it focuses on some recognizable happy things, too:
• Sunny and warm days.
• A triple-scoop ice cream cone with sprinkles.
• A have-to-dance-to-it song.
Then, the book explains how to bring the joy you feel from those happy moments into a place where someone is sad by giving them something simple that costs nothing: just one smile!
One of the major themes of the children's book is spreading kindness in a way that everyone, everywhere, understands. After all, a smile crosses all language barriers, colors, and ages. And with just one, you can bring light to a dark place!
Just One Smile is a great bedtime or storytime book for home, but it also makes a great addition to teachers' bookshelves to teach values at school!
