Review

A meaningful picture book that will help create awareness of the many treasures we have on this planet and encourage young readers to say thank you and be grateful.

The illustrations are outstanding. Simple yet very clever and colorful they work well with the sparse, on point text.

An excellent book to help children understand the various connections in nature, such as a bee to honey, the sun to light, sheep to wool, clouds to rain, trees to wood, dirt to plants closing with earth giving us our home -- Thank you, Earth. This story would work well as a read-aloud with young readers assisting with the "Thank you" pages.

A strong addition to both public and school libraries.

Overall Book Score: very good
