This text is suitable for both boys and girls, though boys may particularly enjoy that it is told from the perspective of Matthew, an eight-year-old Amish boy.
I am not sure why the text in your video is reversed. Don't worry about that, I just thought you should know. The focus on the "elegant" illustrations draws us in and we want to look at them as well. I really appreciate the focus on the theme of kindness, and the use of alliteration to craft images of work, community, family, and kindness.
