It’s Anzac Day today, sunset services are being held all over Australia.
I’m up at sunset watching the Anzac service where doves of peace have been released.
Simpson & his Donkey represent the act of kindness that changes lives. Simpson carried more than 300 wounded soldiers from the World War 1 Gallipoli battlefield under fire to safety. These special books engage us in the courage of Simpson and his Donkey:-
Simpson and His Donkey by Mark Greenwood illustrated by Frane Lessac
The Donkey Who Carried the Wounded by Jackie French
We all do acts of kindess at times, receive them at others.
Reader’s Digest says their column on acts of kindness has exploded – people want to celebrate acts of kindness.
Reader’s Digest supports the just released book ‘The Power of Good’ – stories of the kindness of strangers by leaders in the community, writers, actors, politicans…. and of course some children’s authors – Libby Gleeson. There’s one from me too.
