About the Book

Book Synopsis



Thank you, hedge, / Thank you, tree. / Thank you, flower, / Thank you, bee. / Thank you, rain, / Thank you, sun. / Thank you, farmers, / every one.

In this simple rhyming story from the author of Held in Love, a child says thank you for the gifts nature provides, from hazelnuts in the hedge to apples from the tree, eggs from the hens to milk from the cow. Eventually, the family has enough ingredients to make something special...a delicious apple cake!

With captivating illustrations that brim with emotion, this sweet picture book encourages children to be grateful for the world around them--the perfect read for Thanksgiving. A recipe for apple cake at the end allows you and your child to share in the joyful gratitude.

Pretty illustrations, a big message written in just a few words. My 3 year old loves it! I like that the illustrations are inclusive. Highly recommend.

While the illustrations are beautiful, the context is lacking. Every page is just the girl saying “thank you, “blank”” and you have to infer why. Would not recommend.
