Kindest Kid in the World, Strong Samuel - Paperback

Samuel from Wyoming is an awesome kid with an even more awesome heart. As the very first Wyoming winner of the Kindest Kid in the World award, Samuel shows everyone that kindness isn't just something you say-it's something you choose. Even when life feels hard or his feelings feel big, Samuel takes a deep breath and looks for ways to include others, offer a smile, and make sure no one feels left out.

Adopted from foster care and having faced a serious surgery for his asthma, Samuel's journey hasn't always been easy. But those challenges have only made his heart stronger. He shows empathy, compassion, and thoughtfulness wherever he goes- helping his teachers at school, pitching in at home, and noticing when someone might need a friend. Samuel proves that true strength isn't about never struggling; it's about choosing kindness anyway.

Samuel's story reminds us that one kid can make a big difference. When we choose to care for others, even during our own hard days, we help make the world brighter. Do you know a child like Samuel?
