The first few pages of this gentle, reassuring picture book begin:Most people love to smile.Most people love to laugh.Most people love to see other people smile and laugh too.Most people are good people.Most people want to help when they see someone crying. Most people want to help when they see someone who is in trouble.Most people want to make other people -- even strangers --feel good. Most people are very good people.Some people do bad things. They yell bad words. They lie and steal. They bully and hurt and destroy. But most people don't do those things. If you could line up all the people who want to be good and all the people who want to be bad, the good line would stretch from here to the tallest mountain. All the people in the bad line could crowd together in a dark and gloomy room. Excerpted from Most People: (are Good People) by Michael Leannah All rights reserved by the original copyright owners.
