Story Behind The Book
We created this book to help parents and children be more mindful of all the things to be thankful for in life. We realized we needed to be reminded of this often and wanted to share that message.
Reviews
"Soo Thankful is a lovely story and perfect to share to brighten up any
rainy day. The colours are 'soo' vibrant and bright which really
complements the key messages. Reading this with Finn & Poppy was
great as it was just the right pace to discuss the scenes and enjoy the
illustrations. The book gave a prefect opportunity to engage with my two
little ones, and it was perfect for bedtime." - Andy
