A Story About a Simple Act of Kindness

By Kerascoët

This simple yet powerful picture book tells the story of one girl who inspires a community to stand up to bullying. Inspired by real events, I Walk with Vanessa explores the feelings of helplessness and anger that arise in the wake of seeing a classmate treated badly, and shows how a single act of kindness can lead to an entire community joining in to help. By choosing only pictures to tell their story, the creators underscore the idea that someone can be an ally without having to say a word. With themes of acceptance, kindness, and strength in numbers, this timeless and profound feel-good story will resonate with readers young and old. 40 pages

"Kerascoët’s sweet, charming illustrations do the talking in this book- no words appear, and none are needed. Each page is lovingly and respectfully drawn using a lot of white space, spare application of bright watercolor, and thick ink linework kept simple but loaded with impact and emotion... A wonderfully illustrated, hopeful book that can help caregivers tackle an emotionally fraught subject with even very young children." -Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review (Ages 4-8)

"The message is powerful: one small act can make a difference and change the world." -School Library Journal, Starred Review (Preschool-Grade 3)
