About This Book
Reach for this book when you notice your child is feeling overwhelmed by a busy schedule or when you want to cultivate a daily practice of mindfulness and gratitude. It is a perfect choice for winding down after a long day or for starting a new family tradition of noticing the small, often overlooked gifts in our lives. Simple Thanks uses lyrical, poetic prose to follow a child through a day of observation, from the warmth of the sun to the kindness of a neighbor. It focuses on the beauty of the natural world and the strength of community bonds. While categorized as a chapter book by some retailers, its 32-page length and high illustration-to-text ratio make it feel like an elevated picture book, ideal for children ages 4 to 8. It provides a gentle, secular framework for appreciation that builds emotional intelligence and empathy.
