pattydsf 's review for:
Each Kindness
by E.B. Lewis, Jacqueline Woodson
Occasionally, I read the By the Book column in the New York Times Book Review. I don't need any more books to read, but I am fascinated by what authors have to say about writing, reading and books. I was especially taken by what Woodson had to say. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/28/books/review/jacqueline-woodson-by-the-book.html?_r=0
That is what brought me to this book. I don't read a lot of picture books anymore. However, after reading that Woodson would teach this book to fifth graders, I wanted to see what it was about. There is too much to this story for me to be able to give a synopsis. Let me just say that I will be making sure my grandson encounters this book when he is a bit older. Woodson has written about empathy in a way that I did not expect. It is no wonder that she is such a respected storyteller.
I think everyone should encounter this tale and really think about Woodson is trying to tell us.
