They gather berries, balloons, and ribbons, but Jameson's excitement causes a big mess, he accidentally knocks over the basket, spilling berries everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrustrated and discouraged (especially Jameson, who hates when plans go wrong), the friends realize kindness feels hard when things get messy. They go to the \u003cb\u003eRooted Tree\u003c\/b\u003e, where wise Miss Olive gently reminds them that true kindness doesn't come from trying really hard on our own. It grows naturally when our hearts stay rooted in Jesus and His love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe friends pray together, asking Jesus to grow His kindness in their hearts. With calmer spirits and renewed joy, they clean up the mess, finish the party basket (imperfect but full of love), and welcome Lila with open arms. Lila's face lights up, and soon four friends are laughing and playing together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the end of the day, the three friends realize that kindness feels much better and grows more easily when it flows from Jesus instead of forcing perfection or fairness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shawna Bergeron\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798197684981\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 30\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.08d","brand":"Shawna Bergeron","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48659919307007,"sku":"9798197684981","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kindness-grows-shawna-bergeron-9798197684981","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
