The Many Things I Have

A boy and his grandmother get ready to spend the whole day together. A day filled with activity, sunshine, and joy: riding bikes, climbing trees, and even getting up to a little mischief. Countless small things to be thankful for.
A tender story that plays with the uncertainty of who the narrator really is. The short phrases of gratitude, spoken in the first person, contrast with the colorful illustrations, rendered in solid tones of yellow, green, and brown.
The characters delight us with their displays of affection and the warmth of their day together. Kind and cheerful, readers won’t know until the very end who is more grateful.
