Thankful by Eileen Spinelli is a sweet, simple story with beautiful illustrations by Archie Preston. The pictures reminded me of comics in a way. They were fun to look at through the story because there was so much action with the characters.
The book wasn't what I thought it was going to be. I thought it would explain more what thankfulness really means. Instead it mentioned different occupations and what you can be thankful for each one. The cute part was all the pictures of the kids with their jobs. ;-) My son enjoyed it, but I wanted more depth. Plus, it says it's for ages 4-8, but it seems more geared to 2-4 year olds. There was only one sentence per page, but my son did like it so maybe it's want he needed. A simple rhyme saying what you can be thankful for. :-)
I was given this book free from Booklook Bloggers in exchange for an honest review.
