A cute book to introduce the concepts of Thanksgiving to toddlers.
This is a great book to share with children to help them understand the meaning of Thanksgiving. It explains how we all come together and share a meal. During this time, We thank God for all of our food and everything else that we are thankful for. The book goes back to pilgrim days where it first began. Very cute story!
This is a very simple book. It just introduces young children to the reason behind Thanksgiving. It can also be used to open dialogue with parents about the pilgrims and native Americans.
