Everyone needs to be thankful for what they have; because no matter how little you may think you have, no matter what troubles may befall you, there is aways someone who is worse off than you are! And this is the reason why we all should be thankful for what we have! The elephant and the monkey and all of the fun and familiar Penelope Dyan characters in this fun, 'learn to read' book will tell you this is true. So look for the good! And walk right down the sunny side of the street! Penelope Dyan, who is an award winning author, attorney and former teacher, remembers when she was a kid just like you.And she remembers feeling sad and left out and afraid! She knows the world is not aways perfect like we want it to be. But she remembers what her parents told her about thinking about others. And she remembers her father and mother telling her to think of the good things in life and not the bad things. Because, as they told her, even if things seem bad, "This too will pass!"
