Book Review: Thank You God, for Mommy by Amy Parker

Thank You God, for Mommy by Amy Parker is a sweet children's book from the eyes of a little panda about his mom. Through the book, he thanks God for all the things about his mom that make him feel safe and loved, and most importantly, point him to God. Through the rhyming prose, children of all ages will find things to be thankful for about their moms too!

The illustrations by Frank Endersby and beautifully done and full of life and color. Children will certainly enjoy this reminder of many things to be thankful for in special people in their lives. The qualities praised in the book are virtues, not outward appearance or superficial things. Most of all, the little panda thanks God that his mommy helps him trust in God too, and that she will always love little panda, no matter what he does!!

I would recommend this book to any children's library to learn what it means to be thankful, and what to be thankful for! Most importantly, children will learn that it is good and right to be thankful to God for all the blessings in their lives, and this book will inspire them to be thankful for those blessings in their lives just like little panda did!
