The theme of 'valuing all life' shows the poem's deeper meaning.

Step-by-step explanation:

Theme statement in literature is the subject or an implicit idea. In the poem 'Birdfoot's Grampa, the poet Joseph Bruchuc puts forward the theme that each and every life on this planet matters.

This is illustrated with the example of Grampa. Grampa stops the car again and again so that the life of those toads can be saved. He says 'they have places to go to' which brings forward the poem's deeper meaning and theme of valuing all life and showing kindness and humanity.
