My thoughts:
I like the overall message of this book that we all have been given a gift to share with others.  Even a child has a gift to share.  As parents we need to help our children learn that they are special with their own unique gifts and talents. 

The illustrations are colorful and well done. My son said he liked the pictures. 

This book did not appeal much to my 3 year old boy the first time we read it.  I liked that it rhymed but then the end did not rhyme which bothered me as I was reading aloud. 

This book would provide an opportunity to talk about our gifts with our children and what they think their gifts may be.
