透過一則則真實故事,描寫孩子們參與志工服務、關懷他人的溫暖行動。有的孩子陪伴並教導年幼學生,有的協助訓練導盲犬,也有家庭一起種植蔬菜,捐贈給需要幫助的人。孩子們用小小的付出為社會帶來美好,也鼓勵讀者發現自己幫助他人的力量。
George Ancona celebrates the joy of kids giving back. In one after-school program, middle-school students mentor and tutor younger children. Via a special partnership, schoolchildren help professionals train assistance dogs for people with disabilities. At a community farm, families plant, grow, and harvest produce for soup kitchens and charities. In these and other examples of volunteering, kids of all ages work together knitting hats and scarves for those who could use warm clothes, packing hot meals to deliver to housebound people, and keeping roadways clean. Young humanitarians reading these accounts may well be inspired to find ways that they can help, too.
