One Big Turkey by Anne Vittur Kenney - Review

I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review

Published: August 9. 2016

Number of pages: 20

Genre: Childrens

Synopsis:

Count your blessings! Join one big turkey and his forest friends as they celebrate the harvest season.

Children will count along with big turkey, squirrel, and their forest friends all the reasons they have to be grateful. Sweet, rhyming text will help children count everything they have to be thankful for, including food, friends, full tummies, and most of all, God! This board book presents parents with an adorable and simple way to teach their children about giving thanks.


With sweet rhyming verse, lots of fun images to count, and warm, charming artwork, this book will surely be a favorite every holiday season!


No turkeys were harmed in the telling of this story.

My thoughts:

I thought this was a cute book for little ones. The colors are very bright which will grab their attention. Also it is a board book so it is sturdy enough that the little hands can read it over and over with it ripping. There are many of the animals from the forest in this book and they are all adorable. This is a fun way to teach your little one how to count to ten. Each page has a new number and a new friend so by the time you get to the end you have met many of the cute little forest friends.
