If you’ve spent any time in a nursery, you know Maisy. This 2023 release isn't breaking the mold, but it’s Lucy Cousins doing what she does best: bold lines, primary colors, and zero subtext. It’s a foundational book for building a decent human being.

While 'kindness books' can sometimes feel like a lecture from a HR department, Maisy keeps it grounded in things kids actually do—sharing snacks, making cards, and not pulling the cat's tail. It’s a safe, solid addition to the bedtime rotation that won't make you roll your eyes.
