The Secret of Saying Thanks

by Douglas Wood

The Secret of Saying Thanks Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Perhaps you'd like to know a secret, one of the happiest ones of all.

You will surely find it for yourself one day.

You'll discover it all on your own, maybe when you least expect it. If you've not yet discovered the secret of saying thanks, it's waiting for you. The secret can be found in the sunrise that offers promises full for the day ahead, or in the gentle shade of a tree sheltering you from the hot rays of the sun, or on the rock that offers rest from a long walk.

In the inspirational text that made him a bestselling, internationally acclaimed author, Douglas Wood offers a spiritual homage to nature and the world. Greg Shed's stunning portraits of the natural world tenderly portray all of the many ways in which we can say thanks for the wonders we sometimes take granted in life.

Synopsis:

This picture book is an inspiring and spiritual homage to nature and the world as seen through a child who discovers the secret of saying thanks. Full color.
