Kids don't have to wait until they are grownups to make the world a better place! The newest Kathie Lee Gifford book empowers children to find unique ways to make a difference in the lives of those around them.
The Gift That I Can Give is a heartwarming story that shows how all children can do something today to make a positive impact on others. From simply being kind to giving a loved one an extra-big hug to cheering for a friend, this story will inspire children with countless ways to show God's love, leading them to want to read it again and again.
Kathie Lee is a trusted voice who feels like a friend for countless people. With her strong faith, enthusiasm, and playful writings, she appeals to young hearts and encourages them with the message that no one is too young or too small to share their gift with others.
My thoughts:  THE GIFT THAT I CAN GIVE is a cute, well-done book for kids. I love that it implies that no matter what you are talented at - dance, sports, kindness, etc, one gift that you can give is LOVE.  It encourages children to show love to animals and other people. 
The colorful and well-done illustrations will keep kids attention, and I love the glittery touch on the butterflies on the cover.  The verses are well-written and engaging and will generate discussion.
A cute childrens book that I recommend for daycares, preschools, libraries, and families.
I was given a copy free. All opinions are my own.
