      Jaime Thurston is the founder of 52 Lives, a charity that spreads kindness to someone every week of the year. In Kindness - The Little Thing That Matters Most she shows her readers how they can be kind, it doesn't take much effort to be kind to others and to yourself and it's incredibly rewarding. She divides her book in 52 different easy to achieve actions that anyone can accomplish. By giving her readers a guideline Jaime Thurston is spreading kindness.

      Jaime Thurston has written a wonderful book about kindness. I loved that she gives her readers concrete examples on how they can be kind. There's also scientific information about kindness in the book, which is very interesting. Last, but not least, some amazing 52 Lives experiences are being shared, which shows the beauty behind the project.

      Kindness - The Little Thing That Matters Most looks fantastic. The book is colorful, cheerful and very pretty, which gives it a gorgeous positive vibe. It has the exact right atmosphere and that makes it an attractive book to read and to give to someone as a gift. Kindness is important and it's handy to have a guidebook, sometimes knowing where to start can make a huge difference.

      Jaime Thurston's writing has a nice easy flow, which enables the reader to focus on the content entirely. Kindness - The Little Thing That Matters Most is a heartwarming book, it looks inviting and welcoming, which is something I absolutely love. The best thing about this book for me though is how inspiring it is. I love how Jaime Thurston motivates people, makes them think, uncovers their potential and shows them how to be their best self. I highly recommend this beautiful book.
