The kindness we owe one another goes far beyond the everyday gestures of feeding someone else's parking meter--although it's important not to downplay those small acts. Kindness can also mean much more. In this timely, insightful guide, Henry James Garrett lays out the case for developing a strong, courageous, moral kindness, one that will help you fight cruelty and make the world a more empathetic place.
So, how could a book possibly make you kinder? It would need to answer two questions:
• Why are you kind at all? and,
• Why aren't you kinder?
In these pages, building on his academic studies in metaethics and using his signature-sweet animal cartoons, Henry James Garrett sets out to do just that, exploring the sources and the limitations of human empathy and the many ways, big and small, that we can work toward being our best and kindest selves for the people around us and the society we need to build.

REAL SELF-HELP SUBSTANCE IN A GIFTABLE PACKAGE: Henry's colorful, sweet animal illustrations and a gettable title will make this a nice impulse or gift buy, while his philosophically rigorous entree into metaethics has the weight to be thought-provoking and gently life-changing for the reader.
REMINISCENT OF SUCCESSFUL ILLUSTRATORS: Henry's earnest tone, pastel color palette, and way of using minimalist comics to express big ideas will be extremely appealing to fans of superstars in this category like Mari Andrew (with whom he is friendly on Instagram), Adam J. Kurtz, and Jonny Sun.
