Love the message the story tells, easy read!
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
This book tells a perfect little story teaching little ones to be thankful. I love how it only tells a story about being thankful and kind, but it also is teaching them numbers through repetition. Each page shows a number and also has the word of the number to read. In such a short read, little ones can learn a lot. Because it’s short and sweet, it keeps their attention and the illustrations are cute and fun for toddlers to follow along with. This makes for a perfect gift for a new little one or a great addition to a current toddler library! In our family, we also love that it’s a board book Because it holds up longer with a family of three little ages 1, 2.5 and 4. Everyone enjoys it and it’s a family favorite!

Just the sweetest book ever
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
This is such a great read along for a 2-4 year old. I love the message of being thankful, it includes number counting, animals, and lots of cute graphics that kids love. Such a great read. Also being a board book it’s more sturdy than a standard book and I can let my toddler turn through the pages on his own without the fear of it ripping. Sturdy, attention catching, and a great teaching message makes it a wonderful read for kids.
