 Subject: HIT: ELEM Books on Good Deeds / Random Acts of Kindness
 
  Thanks for the responses!  There were many requests for a HIT.

 

Original Post:

Random Acts of Kindness Week is Feb 12-18.  I'm looking for picture
books, easy non-fiction, and books for adults to promote doing good
deeds/random acts of kindness and/or manners. I would love to hear
titles you'd recommend.  I would also be interested in websites with
ideas for promoting random acts of kindness with ideas children in
grades K-3 can do, and I'm also interested in quotes which emphasize the
importance of doing for others.  I'll post a HIT of what I find.
Thanks!
