I am generous / by Sarah L. Schuette ; consulting editor, Gail Saunders-Smith ; 
consultant, Madonna Murphy.
Generosity / by Lucia Raatma.
Cookies in the mailbox / by Linda Porter Carlyle ; illustrated by Mary Rumford.
The value of generosity / by Janet Grosshandler.

 

My all-time favorite picture book: Horton Hatches the Egg is about generosity! 
Horton is generous with his time and his attention.

 

If you can get a copy of Alex's Amazing Lemonade Stand is at true story and if you 
look at the pictures on page 25, the little boy in the krispy kreme hat is my 
nephew!
