The Secret of Saying Thanks

The Secret of Saying Thanks by Douglas Wood

Summary: While learning the secret to a good life, a child says thank you for the natural world and for being loved, because a grateful heart is always happy.

My Thoughts: The pictures are beautiful! This isn't exactly a story but more of a series of descriptions of things in nature and life to be thankful. The words help the reader to realize the benefit of being thankful and that is that a thankful heart is happy. This would be an interesting book to share with a young person as a point of discussion about gratitude and the importance of being thankful.
