The Gift That I Can Give
by Kathie Lee Gifford
★★★★★
All of us want something important to give the world
The colorful and touching art is the crowning jewel of The Gift That I Can Give, illustrating the many ways that children can serve others and use the various gifts that God has given them to be his hands and feet in the world. While the book starts by illustrating the major attention-getting gifts such as singing, athletics, and dancing, it goes on to point out the importance of the quieter gifts, such as encouragement, empathy, kindness, and sharing God’s love that are as important as the showier gifts and needed in everyday life.
The art will keep little ones enthralled and help start many conversations. The inner knowledge that all gifts are important and valuable will stick with them for a lifetime.
The Gift That I Can Give is a sweet book with deep roots to share with little ones. Highly recommended.
I received this book as an Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) through NetGalley. My opinions are my own.
