Getting to the Heart of Complimenting is a rhyming, educational picturebook that walks young readers step by step through the basic etiquette of giving and receiving compliments, with emphasis on the importance of cultivating a big heart. Written by mother of four and expert in communications Anne Paluszny, Getting to the Heart of Complimenting is perfect for parents to share with children while teaching them basic social interaction skills. "But there's another way to compliment, so before the day is through / use kind words to let others know that you like the things they do. / 'Grandpa, I like the way you tell stories about your life as a little boy.' / Tell Nana that baking cookies with her is something you really enjoy." Highly recommended.
