Special Books for your Special Little One

The ThumbPeople Story
Just as our thumb sets us apart from our fingers, our thumbrprint sets us apart and makes us unique. We are all born to be ThumbPeople – blessed and destined to live amazing lives.

Those are profound truths we hope you will embrace:
You are Thumbuddy…
Your child is Thumbuddy…
Thumbuddy special, wonderful, unique, set apart and precious…
A miracle in every way.

If your toddler is anything like mine, books are a large part of your day. We always read several books at night before bed, but stories are also requested randomly throughout the day. It’s always fun to discover new characters and books so we were excited to get a couple Thumbuddy books to enjoy. We received I’ll Always Love My Thumbuddy and the board book Thumbuddy, Thumbuddy, I Love You!

The Thumbuddy series written by Mark Arens stars a sweet little thumb character who actually represents your child. The books praise and affirm your child throughout with lines like “Thumbuddy, Thumbuddy, you are huggable! Thumbuddy, Thumbuddy, truly so loveable!” (from Thumbuddy, Thumbuddy I Love You).

The coolest part about the Thumbuddy series is that after you read the book once, you read it again and replace your child’s name with Thumbuddy’s name. The book then becomes a sweet love story from you to your little one. I think I enjoyed this more than Toddler Boy! I honestly find it to be such a nice way to tell my little guy how much I love him – sentiments that can easily get lost in a day of dirty diapers, toys throwing and tantrums.

“I’ll always love my Thumbuddy,
No matter what you do;
Good or bad or in between,
You’re my special you.”

In addition to the collection of seven books, Thumbpeople also offers music CDs so you can boogie to the sweet sentiments of Thumbuddy. We have the You are Thumbuddy CD which has original lyrics set to fun, familiar childhood songs.
