Sometimes the news can be too much. This reassuring picture book helps young children understand difficult news events, process big feelings, and find comfort in community, kindness, and hope--empowering families to have gentle, honest conversations about the world around them.

A "timely text" with "emotions...sensitively portrayed throughout... Affirming the resilience that can result when small acts are focused on community." - The New York Times

"Appropriate for many situations children face in today's never-ending news cycle. An absolute-must for...libraries." - School Library Journal

When devastating news rattles a young girl's community, her normally attentive parents and neighbors are suddenly exhausted and distracted.

At school, her teacher tells the class to look for the helpers--the good people working to make things better in big and small ways. She wants more than anything to help in a BIG way, but maybe she can start with one small act of kindness instead . . . and then another, and another.Small things can compound, after all, to make a world of difference.
