| Thank You by JarvisWhile many children need to be nudged into saying "thank you," the narrator of this picture book doesn't seem to stop. Throughout their day, they thank everything from their beloved red hat to the bubbles in the bath to the Tyrannosaurus ("for being the longest word I know"). Kirkus Reviews calls Thank You "a joyfully quirky gratitude journal for the preschool set." |
