Written by Kobi Yamada

Illustrated by Charles Santoso

From the same New York Times best-selling author-illustrator team behind the endearing book Finding Muchness comes an-all ages tale about discovering the joy gratitude brings. Follow a wonder-struck bear cub on a day of adventure that includes dancing in the rain, gazing at gophers, and attempting handstands on the forest floor. Every page of this heartwarming book is an invitation to slow down, look around, and fully appreciate each tiny, miraculous moment. With magical simplicity, the book’s words of wisdom encourage happiness and personal growth at any age:

“Look closely. The extraordinary is hidden in the ordinary. It is in the appreciation of something that we really begin to see it.”

The most meaningful things in life are meant to be shared: stories, memories, love.”

“This day will never happen again. Everything is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Give thanks in this moment. And this moment. And this moment. And all your moments going forward.”

Pair Feeling Grateful with its cuddly companion Bear Plush as a reminder to grab hold of the goodness and abundance that surrounds you each day.
