Kimmy was seven years of age and loved school. His mother had taught him kindness, so he was always sharing with others. Some children were unkind to him, but he continued to be kind anyway.

He learnt from his friend that this was a poor family in the community. He felt sorry for the new boy, because he looked hungry. He wanted to help him.
