Explore the importance of kindness with the youngest readers in a wonderfully accessible way. Even little children have big questions about life. Confucius believed always treating people with kindness can make us wise, and Kindness with Confucius brings his philosophy to the youngest thinkers. He believed we should use our own feelings as a guide to how to treat others. We feel good when people are kind to us and should want to make others feel that way. Emphasizing the importance of being in touch with your own emotions in order to be kind to others, this book will lead to inspiring conversations about human dynamics between people of all ages. Look for all six Big Ideas for Little Philosophers board books- Equality with Simone de Beauvoir, Happiness with Aristotle, Imagination with Rene Descartes, Kindness with Confucius, Love with Plato, and Truth with Socrates.
