November Book: HumanKind: Changing the World One Small Act at a Time (2020), by Brad Aronson
Filled with true stories about how one small deed can make a world of difference, this book leaves the reader grateful for what he/ she has, provides a refuge from the negativity surrounding us, and is a reminder of what matters. You’ll meet the mentor who changed a child’s life with a single lesson in shoe-tying and see the far-reaching ripple effects of that seemingly small deed, the band of seamstress grandmothers who patch clothes and mend hearts for homeless people, and many more everyday heroes. Forbes called HumanKind “The most uplifting and life-affirming book in years.”
