Reviews

5.0

“The text in this sweet board book feels slightly unexpected and unique in its wording, but I enjoyed it (though it's more embellished than it is simple or easier for little ones to understand). I thought this was a lovely take on and addition to books about being thankful for little moments. The illustrations are full of diverse characters. It spans through the seasons and moments of various importance, suggesting we say thank you for it all—whatever makes us feel glad inside.”
