#pb10for10 Ten Books I Use to Promote Friendship and Kindness

Thank you to Cathy Mere and Mandy Robek for this yearly celebration of picture books.  Join in to share and learn here.

I love to talk about friendship and kindness all the time with my first grade friends.  We return to it many times during the school year.  And some of these books I will read several times based on what we need.

So without further chatter, here are 10 books that can be used to promote Friendship and Kindness:


Last year, I think I read this book no less than 3 times to my class.  I love it.


This is another book that I love to read a couple of times a year.  I love to read and share and plant the idea that food can really bring people together.


Sometimes a little magic is all you need to start a friendship.


I love reading this book to remind kids that it can be the small acts of kindness that build a person up.
