Eileen Spinelli has done it again! This a fantastic kid's book. I found it a very unique "thankfulness" book. The ideas and thoughts are ones children can relate to but not the common ones usually found in a thanksgiving theme book. For example Spinelli writes: The artist is thankful for color and light. How unique is that? And how about this thought: The chef is thankful for plates licked clean. Can't you just imagine a child laughing over that line? The best part of this book is that each page features a brother and sister duo. The chef is their dad! The artist is the brother and so on. Archie Preston illustrations add a depth of warmth to this already wonderfully love filled book. I'm a kindergarten teacher and a grandmother and I plan to get this book for my classroom and my grandchildren!
I received this book free from the publishers and was not required to write a positive review.
