Description

A Little Moment of Kindness helps young children explore what it means to be kind to themselves and those around them. Even at such a young age, children are learning to interact with other people in their lives, be it friends, grandparents or siblings. All the time they are observing how we treat each other, so the need to emphasise the kindness and patience is as valuable as it is necessary. This beautifully illustrated book helps children think about what kindness means and it value in the world. Each illustration is placed alongside an inspirational thought which allows room for reflection and encouragement for children. Designed to enjoy through individual reading or with an older family member, this series allow parents and grandparents to read alongside their young ones and share together in the experience of slowing-down, valuing stillness and thoughtfulness, and spending time in the company of family members and God.

Author Biography

Jenny Meldrum lives in Sussex with her husband, three children and Isla, her greedy black Labrador. She paints from her studio (posh word for shed) in her garden, eternally distracted by wild rabbits, moorhens, deer and a particularly pesky heron. Despite her love of art since childhood, Jenny had no formal training and began her career as an actress, only returning to painting when her own children were at school. She has since privately exhibited seascapes and views of the South Downs. In 2016 she illustrated Miranda Hart's book Peggy and Me.
