Now as a board book! Set in the Midwest, Ten Beautiful Things is a heartfelt story about finding beauty wherever you are.

A gentle book for toddlers where Lily and her grandma count from one to ten beautiful things on a heartfelt road trip to their new home.

Lily and her grandmother search for ten beautiful things as they take a long car ride to Lily's new home with Gran. First, Lily sees a morning sunrise. Second, she spots a windmill farm. At the end of the journey, Lily discovers the tenth beautiful thing: Lily and Gran and their love for each other.

The litte ones are introduced to ordinal numbers in this sweet journey home.
