Review
"Sure to be a new Thanksgiving Day classic, I Am Thankful is all about creating fun family memories and expressing our gratitude on a special day. With dreamy illustrations and sweet rhymes, families gather together to celebrate one another, think of others in need, and reflect on all we have to be thankful for. Your kids will love reciting the grateful mini mantra, ‘I am thankful. My heart grows. Love fills me from head to toes.’"―Lisa Ferland, Author and Crowdfunding Consultant
“Recent research into the development and acquisition of early literacy skills has conclusively shown that rhythm and rhyme play a hugely important role. This is because children’s early literacy skills are about listening and speaking rather than reading and writing. I love the rhyming and beautiful inclusive illustrations within this book. I look forward to adding it to both my personal and professional library.” ―Kimberly Mitchell, M.Ed., MS, CCC-SLP, Speech Language Pathologist

From the Author
Thanksgiving is a beautiful time! I love how the diversity of celebrations all unite in gratitude. The parallel stories and art showcasing three unique families are a gentle introduction to others' experiences during the fall holiday season. I'm thrilled to be able to share this rhyming story that not only provides opportunities for young children to develop reading comprehension and visual recognition skills but also encourages making memories and starting traditions of their own.
