How to Give Thanks

I bought this book for my 3yr old and 5 yo. We pray at night together, and sometimes they are at a loss of what they could be thankful for. I ask them what is something you are thankful for that happened today? This book has possiblities to open their imaginations and give them ideas of what to be thankful for. God's creation, Family, food, playtime, friends, toys, and most especially for God loving me. Sometimes a book can get a message across so much more than my recommendations. I am glad that I purchased this book.

Wonderful book!

My four year old really enjoys reading this book as do I. The words are as appealing and beautiful as the illustrations. It was a Thanksgiving gift, but we continue to read it year round, to remind us of all we have to be thankful for. It is a wonderful book and a great gift!

Fantastic
