Description
For a young brother and sister, each day spent outside is an adventure, and every marvel they encounter is a gift. Together, they run through fields of lush, green grass and say "thank you" for the rain, they greet fish in babbling brooks and say "thank you" for the clear blue waters. And at the end of each adventure, they race home and say "thank you" for the friends they made along the way.
When an empty plot of land presents the opportunity to do more than say "thank you," these siblings gather their tools - their friends, their shovels, and their watering cans - to help plant the seeds of love and gratitude.
