Cranberry Thanksgiving (Cranberryport)
Every year Grandmother invited a guest for Thanksgiving dinner and allowed Maggie to do the same. "Ask someone poor or lonely," she always said.

After a long absence this delightful 1971 classic is back. So is Grandmother's secret recipe!

A Short History of Thanksgiving (Holiday Histories)
Sally Lee is the author of numerous nonfiction books for readers from kindergarten through high school. Her interest in children’s literature began at the University of Missouri where she received her degree in education. Her years of teaching gave her desire to help children learn. When she left the classroom to raise her own son and daughter, writing nonfiction became a way to continue educating children. Her favorite part of writing nonfiction is doing research. It reminds her of a treasure hunt, especially when it uncovers off-beat facts that nobody else knows. It also satisfies her own curiosity about the world. Sally and her husband live in Dallas, Texas, with their children and grandchildren nearby. Young readers learn about the early traditions which have led to our present-day celebration of Thanksgiving.

Capturing the precious memories and emotions of the holiday season, toddlers will learn about the deeper meaning of Thanksgiving in this vividly illustrated story.

Thank You, Thanksgiving
In this exuberant Thanksgiving story, a little girl goes on a last-minute errand for her mother. Along the way, she thanks all the familiar things she loves—her warm boots, the song of the birds, the pretty clouds in the November sky. And when she gets home from her errand, her family thanks her for what she has brought. David Milgrim’s spare, repetitive text and colorful, contemporary illustrations are perfect for beginning readers, and leave no doubt about how much there is in the world to be thankful for!

Oh, What a Thanksgiving!
David, a boy who thinks modern Thanksgivings are boring, imagines being at Plymouth Colony and celebrating the first Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims. Grade 1-3 David uses his vivid imagination to visualize the first Thanksgiving while he's preparing for his own. The school bus ride home fades into the arrival of the Mayflower, a trip to the supermarket becomes a wild turkey hunt, and to top things off he imagines the feast complete with a parade of 90 Indian braves to celebrate peace. Not surprisingly, David finds that he's dissatisfied with the present, which lacks the adventure of the past. Just in time, a chance encounter with his teacher helps him realize that he's got a lot for which he should be thankful, and the meal at Grandma's turns out just fine. The illustrations depict a suburban neighborhood giving way to the early Plymouth settlements, but the art is lackluster and stiff. This is a good idea that receives just average treatment.

The Perfect Thanksgiving
Enter two families who couldn't be more opposite. Family one seems just perfect―with a plump golden turkey, gorgeous whipped cream swirls atop their pie, and lace napkins on the table.
