Kindness Rocks

A picture book from the founder of The Kindness Rocks Project to celebrate the power of kind words and actions

One message at just the right moment can change someone’s entire day, outlook, or even life! From Megan Murphy, the founder of The Kindness Rocks Project, comes a picture book about the power of kindness. Follow a diverse group of children, strangers to each other but each dealing with their own very bad day. When they each find a painted rock with a positive message, they pick up their paint brushes to pass along their kind message, and so the chain of kindness heals one heart after another. With sweet illustrations by JiaJia Hamner, Kindness Rocks is perfect for library and classroom reading time to inspire everyone to plant a little extra kindness in the world.

Megan Murphy is the founder of The Kindness Rocks Project, a grassroots kindness initiative that spans 90 countries and includes millions of participants around the globe—earning it a unique place in art history as one of the world’s largest participatory and interactive works of art ever created. She is also a Certified Professional Coach (CPC), Women’s Empowerment Coach, Business Mentor, Kindness Activist, and Meditation Instructor, as well as the creator of the BE THE “I” IN KIND community-focused installation that has been installed around the world and cofounder of a global, multimedia mental health initiative called The Kindness Rocks & Smiles Community Project.
