The Precious Gift of Patience: Kindness Always Comes to Find You

Everybody loves Willow. She’s a popular kid. But not in the way other popular kids are. She doesn’t have cool new stuff, awesome athletic skills, or a nice car to come to school in. What she does have though is kindness, compassion, and positivity . . . and lots of it too. That’s why people love her so much. But something happens at school one day that makes her question why anyone would bother to be kind . . . or compassionate . . . or positive. Why should she bother when life doesn’t always seem fair? This is a story all about the importance of being kind and patient. It also deals with the idea that whatever energy you put out into the world, you will receive back if you are wise enough to wait. This idea is commonly known as the law of attraction. Even though being kind, thoughtful, and helpful can often feel like thankless gifts to give the world, they are always noticed. This tale teaches children that gifts such as these are vital to society and that they are always appreciated, even if it doesn’t always feel like it. Will Willow discover the true gift of patience?
