A cute story about kindness, empathy and love.


Kindness Rocks is a touching children's book about the power of kindness and how small things can inspire, motivate and uplift others in tremendous ways.

Little Clara enjoys painting cute messages on rocks and leaving them for people to read. One day a turtle feeling down and out passes by Clara's house. Upon seeing the messages on the rocks he is rejuvenated and rushes home to share the messages with his friends.

This is not your typical rock, mineral or stone picture book, but rather a heartwarming tale that seeks to teach children that no act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.

Kindness Rocks will sit perfectly on your shelf alongside rock painting and kindness books for children such as Be Kind, Scribble Stones, Kindness Starts With You -At School, and A Little Spot Of Kindness.

This easy to read kindness book for children is perfect for toddlers, preschool, kindergarten and elementary age group.( ages 2, 3,4, 5, 6, and 7)

Spreading kindness and positivity one painted rock at a time.

Kindness does rock.

Kindness does rock.
Gotta love a story that inspires kindness! Makes me want to draw on rocks. The story reminds me of being young and collecting rocks myself. I hope each little kid who reads this story passes on an act of kindness and spreads the love.

Little Clara collects rocks alo9ng the creek beds & then loves to paint special messages on them. Then she leaves them for people to find & read.
1-day Sheldon (turtle) is feeling sad & spies 1 of Clara's rocks with a message on it.
It perked him up so much Sheldon went & told his best friends Benny (bunny); Merle (squirrel); Nibbles (mouse); & Harry (skunk) what he had found.
All the other animals soon found out also & shared with their friends.
Little Clara knew it was hard work, but she continued to do what she knew was best for all.
It came time & the family had to move another baby was on the way.

Sheldon soon realized that Clara had moved.

I do not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing free books from publishers & authors. Therefore, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, only an honest one.

An awesome book cover, great hand-drawn colored pictures, charming illustrations & proper font & writing style. A very professionally written children’s (preschool/elementary age) zoo animal storybook. It was quite easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters, settings, etc. to keep track of. This could also make another great children’s educational presentation, (kindness/encouragement), movie, an animated cartoon, or better yet a mini-TV series. There is no doubt in my mind this is an extremely easy rating of 5 stars.

Sonnie's book is about spreading kindness. There is no expectation of return. In sweet, simple prose, readers will learn of how one little girl brings happiness to others. And her actions inspire others to do the same.

The lovely illustrations invite us in and the message challenges us to spread kindness in our own communities.

Clara is a girl who is inherently sweet. She collects rocks, then paints kind messages on them for any and all who pass to see. She shares love without a second thought.

When Sheldon the turtle passes, in a glum mood, Clara's rocks immediately cheer him up. Exactly what they're meant to do. He in turn shares with another animal friend, and that creates a chain reaction. Soon many animals are enjoying Clara's wonderful kindness rocks. There is obviously more to this story and more kindness to share, but I'll let you read it from Sonica herself.

Between Clara's unyielding compassion and Sheldon's continuation of caring, this book just exudes kindness from every page. If only everyone could be like these characters...

Kindness Rocks is a beautiful story about a young girl who writes some kind and encouraging phrases on some rocks and leaves them outside her home for everyone to see.

This is a really lovely idea for a book and it shows so well how much of a difference kind words can make. I think it is great that we get to see how the animals react to the rocks and that the little girl takes the time to make them each day even though she doesn't see their reactions. Perfect for getting children to think about how they can be kind and what kind things others do to make them happy.

The illustrations are lovely and it is nice to see the rocks as a focus as it helps us see and understand the effects they are having. Having animals as characters is fun and I think this is preferable to people for children as it is shown in a fun and lighthearted way but still relatable.

This is a fantastic book to show how kindness can improve your day and spread and it is even something children could start doing themselves, a great read!
