Thanksgiving Is…
Thanksgiving is turkey, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. It is a holiday for remembering the Pilgrims and the Indians. Most of all, it is a time to share with family and friends, and a time to give thanks for many blessings.

GREAT author for kids (and adults),
All of her books are wonderful about the origin of holidays and how today’s traditions come from those beginnings. Her other holiday books also do a great job in combining religious and secular traditions. I have bought all of her holiday books becuase they teach ME things I never knew about those holidays. I have all her holiday books and as my kids get older, I will buy her books on other subjects if my children show interest in those areas. I really hope she writes a 4th of July book.

Educational and Enjoyable,
I enjoy sharing this book with my students every year. It shares just the right amount of history for a lower elementary school audience. I even turned the book into a readers theater for my student to perform one year.
