Gracias . Thanks (English and Spanish Edition). Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar.Gracias . Thanks (English and Spanish Edition)

There are so many things to be thankful for.

For one young boy, it's

flying ladybugs,

splashing ocean waves,

a best friend,

Dad's thick chocolate syrup,

and much more.

Straight from the heart of a child flows this lighthearted bilingual celebration of family, friendship, and fun. Come share the joy, and think about all the things for which you can say, "¡Gracias! Thanks!"
