![]() ![]() Finally, Grace thanks Mama, and Mama thanks her back…for saying thanks. Mama has a “thank you” too, for the flower tree where they met their friend Trish, who gave them the jar of relish that they are eating right now. ![]() More thanks go to the road workers who fixed the path along the creek, which allowed Mama to get to Suki’s vegetable stand and buy the corn and kale that they were eating. She goes on to thank Leo, who enabled her to pick the lemons that she squeezes onto her fish, as well as the alpaca that provided the wool that Auntie Amber used to knit a scarf for Uncle Fred so he wouldn’t freeze when he went fishing. When Mama asks why, Grace explains that the kangaroos didn’t eat the carrots. Grace sits down to eat, promptly thanking the kangaroos. “Thanks to the rain, the soil and the sunshine,” says Mama, it’s dinnertime. Little Grace is full of gratitude for the meal she’s about to eat. ![]()
