Publisher's Synopsis

"A playfully profound picture book that does its part in passing on good feelings." -Kirkus Reviews

Because Amelia smiles as she skips down the street, her neighbor Mrs. Higgins smiles too, and decides to send a care package of cookies to her grandson Lionel in Mexico. The cookies give Lionel an idea, and his idea inspires a student, who in turn inspires a ballet troupe in England! And so the good feelings that started with Amelia's smile make their way around the world. Putting a unique spin on "what goes around comes around" Caldecott Honoree David Ezra Stein's charmingly illustrated story reminds us that adding even a small dose of kindness into the world is sure to spur only more kindness-which could eventually make its way back to you!
