Feeling Grateful

The creative pair behind the New York Times best-selling gift book Finding Muchness returns with a picture book for all ages about how gratitude brings joy. Its central idea is that today will never happen again, so ordinary moments deserve thanks now and in all the days ahead.

The story follows a young bear cub through a single day of small adventures. It dances through a rainstorm, studies gophers, and tries handstands on the forest floor, joined by a cast of woodland animal friends.

Each page asks readers to pause, look around, and notice the small miracles of everyday life. Short passages of inspiration appear throughout, explaining how thankfulness can make ordinary moments feel more meaningful, and the lessons are meant to stay useful in any season.

The pen and pencil illustrations show the bear cub and its animal companions, aiming to bring out a sense of childlike wonder in readers of every age. The book also suits gift-giving, whether for a birthday, a new graduate, or someone who makes the world a better place.
