    About this ebook

    Our Greatest Gift — Giving thanks for a lifetime of pampering, attention, and unconditional love is no easy task. Yet, neither Román nor Ferrándiz has found a more beautiful way of doing it, between delicate verses and precious illustrations full of tenderness.

     Is there a more precious gift than a heart full of gratitude??

    This is how such a magical picture book was born, from the purest and most sincere feelings, accompanied by illustrations of great beauty, but above, from a sense of immense gratitude. 

    A homage to our loved ones: parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. 

    So dear and present, tireless in their life project: to make ours easier and more beautiful.

    Our elders, those magical beings, must now receive the tribute they deserve for everything they have given us: care, understanding, shelter, protection, complicity, games, and knowledge.
