The Positive Power series introduces self esteem and empathy to budding young readers. I Am Kind is a fun and encouraging story about the power of kindness! Now a part of the premier early reading line, Step into Reading!
A little girl sees kindness all around her. Her mother is kind when she volunteers in the community, and her neighbor is kind when he gives her strawberries from his garden. The little girl realizes that she, too, has the power to be kind. Even small actions can have a big impact! In this installment of the Positive Power early reader series, children will learn the affirmation "I am kind" through an encouraging story of community and everyday kindness.
Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories, for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help. Rhyme and rhythmic text paired with picture clues help children decode the story.
