This is a beautiful
little book where Little Bear is giving thanks in prayer for all the things
during her day that she is thankful for. Even the negative things like rain
turn out to be something she can be thankful for because then she can play in
the mud and then have a lovely bubbly bath afterwards.
I loved the positive
message this book had. It teaches us (children and parents) to look for the
positive things in life rather than to look for the negative things. It’s easy
to see everything from the negative side, but if we do that we can become
negative.
Finding something to
be thankful for even in things we might normally find negative is a good
stretching experience and will help us develop a more positive attitude, which
is much healthier.
I thought the
pictures were very sweet in this short little book. The backgrounds to the
pictures were pinkish or pastel in colour which led me to believe that Little
Bear was a girl, which is why I referred to her as “her” in the first
paragraph, though Little Bear could just as easily be a boy.
I would highly
recommend this book to help promote positive attitudes in your young children.
The book is suitable for children up to and including beginning readers. I gave
it 5 out of 5 stars.
Thank you to the
author for providing a copy of the book in exchange for a fair and honest
review. A positive opinion was not required. All thoughts are my own.
