This illustrated children’s book celebrates the extraordinary potential of ordinary deeds—showing how one child’s act of kindness can change the world
One ordinary day, Ordinary Mary stumbles upon some ordinary blueberries. When she decides to pick them for her neighbor, Mrs. Bishop, her thoughtful act starts a chain reaction that multiplies around the world. Mrs. Bishop makes blueberry muffins and gives them to her paperboy and four others—one of whom is Mr. Stevens, who then helps five different people with their luggage—one of whom is Maria, who then helps five other people—and so on, until the deed comes back to Mary.

      After Mary secretly leaves fresh berries on Mrs. Bishop's porch, the woman makes muffins. She gives some to five people, and a chain of kindness begins. A numbers pyramid at book's end shows that after fifteen days, the chain would touch everyone on earth. The sentiment is lovely if unoriginal; the writing is precious and breathless. The color illustrations are competently executed but unremarkable.
