If animals tried to be kind . . .what would they do? Porcupine would knit a scarf for Giraffe, long enough to fit. Cat would snuggle Mouse to sleep with her lullaby purrrrrr. Stork would lift up Lizard, so she could be close to the sky, just once. And across the animal kingdom, every creature would try to be thoughtful and kind to each other. Another winner from Ann Whitford Paul and David Walker, If Animals Tried to Be Kind is perfect for showing children the power of being considerate and caring.
