But other forest creatures are still awake, so why can't Small Bear stay up and play, too? Mama Bear gives her small one the cosiest of answers and paints a dreamy picture of bright colours and new adventures that will greet Small Bear come spring. But first, to sleep.

"This sweet, soft focus meditation on being gratefully present is a relaxing read-aloud for both parent and child."  —The New York TimesA heartfelt picture book that celebrates embracing the moment and finding gratitude right here, right now.What does grateful look like? How does it feel? How do you find it? Even in the face of a challenge, you don’t need a map: You just need to pay attention to the little things—a smile, a hug, the smell of newly cut grass—that add up to a sense of presence and hope.  With evocative, lyrical prose, this warmly illustrated children's book is a reminder to pause, reflect, and take in the glimmers of positivity and connection that can be found amid even the most difficult circumstances. Both a timely meditation on finding gratitude in everyday moments and a timeless ode to the simple joy of truly being present, Finding Grateful encourages readers to slow down and embrace the beauty of being right where they are.
