Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Things I Love about Family
Kay Widdowson · 2020
65/100
👎 Skip It
A sweet, cozy picture book that has kids reflect on the small things they love about their families - cooking together, cheering each other on. It's more of a warm prompt-list than a story with an arc, so it's a nice supplemental read rather than a must-have.
