From the creators of The Thank You Book, this board book celebrates the ways we can be welcoming and the importance of community.
If you meet someone new in the world today,
there is a very kind word you can say.
“Welcome!”
Welcoming somebody shows that you care.
You’re happy to see them. You’re glad they are there.
From inviting a friend to play to welcoming a new baby into the world, this sweet book celebrates all the ways we can welcome those around us—and shows readers that even small acts can have a big impact.
