Product DescriptionWith gentle, joyful illustrations, this celebration of the potential in each person illuminates the simple ways the world can be a better place — because of you.
Each time a child is born, the world changes.
Each child brings to the world one more person to love and care for — and one more person who can love and care for others. As children grow and learn, they can teach others and share feelings, ideas, and things. Just as each of us sometimes needs help, we can also find ways to help others. The author and illustrator of MY BOOK OF THANKS reunite to show, through everyday examples, how acts of kindness, understanding, and generosity — no matter how small — can make all the difference in the world.

Rating: - Great Children's book
I've read this book to my son since he was an infant and he's now 3. It shows your child how important he is in this world and what he can do to change it -- without being too preachy.
