Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
The Power of Gratitude Unlocking Hidden Treasures
Ruth Maille · 2021
70/100
👍 Worth It
Pairing gratitude practice with the alphabet is a genuinely creative structural choice, and the author's background as a daycare operator and parent coach means the approach was shaped by real experience with young children rather than theory alone. Reviewers on Readers' Favorite and NetGalley praised the vibrant illustrations and simple language, and the reusable ABC-gratitude framework gives it a longer shelf life than a standard feelings book. A solid pick for parents and early childhood classrooms looking to build a gratitude habit.
