Synopsis
The ideal kindness book for children and the ideal "be kind" book for kids!
Because Brian Hugged his Mother is an uplifting tale that makes children more aware of their special effect on the world, and how any act, big or small, can make a difference.
Watch the "ripple effect" of a simple act of kindness in this book that teaches children about the importance of kindness! Kindness is contagious, and this story shows how even young Brian can start a chain reaction that brings a bit of joy to people he does not even know.

If you like to hug and share your joy with children, this book is for you—and for them.

About the Authors
When David Rice was seven years old, he observed a small dog trying to wake its mother which had been killed by a passing car. As he watched the grieving puppy's vain attempts, he was struck by the depth of sadness and pain. David's lifelong interest in feelings-both animal and human-comes through in his books, Do Animals Have Feelings Too?, Lifetimes and Because Brian Hugged His Mother. Lifetimes introduces some of nature's longest, shortest and most unusual lifetimes and the lessons we can learn from them. Because Brian Hugged His Mother shows how a chain reaction of kindness can spread through a whole school and community as a result of a single hug. David Rice is retired elementary and special education teacher, currently residing in southern California.
K. Dyble Thompson enjoys watching people of all kinds-young and old, working and at play. In her art, she loves to play with puns and show silly scenarios. She has a degree in fine arts from the University of Milwaukee. In addition to her book illustrations, she is known as a muralist and pavement artist. She provided the beautiful illustrations for Because Brian Hugged His Mother and Cat!.
