Gracie Feeds the Birds - Hardcover

by Jane Yolen (Author), Peter Tacy (Author), Frances Ives (Illustrator)

Can a handful of birdseed teach kids about kindness? Gracie thinks so--and she's got a gentle way of showing it.

From beloved author Jane Yolen and educator Peter Tacy, Gracie Feeds the Birds is a quiet, heartfelt story that helps children understand the power of gratitude, empathy, and noticing the world around them. On a crisp fall morning, Gracie thanks each bird, squirrel, and even her skeptical dog--not because she expects anything in return, but because it feels good to be kind. This nature-based picture book is the perfect addition to storytime and classroom read-alouds.
