A set of classic Thanksgiving reads this year:
In November
Cynthia Rylant, illustrated by Jill Kastner
ISBN: 0152010769
A lovely segue between the natural world settling down into winter, and the social world congregating for thanksgiving celebrations. Very soothing and pretty.
We Share One World
Jane E Hoffelt, illustrated by Marty Husted
ISBN: 0970190786
A short rhyming-couplet poem follows children from countries around the world as they interact with nature in their differing environments. Super sweet message without being cloying.
Bear Says Thanks
Karma Wilson, illustrated by Jane Chapman
9781416958567
I love the Bear books, and this one is no exception. Bear is worried because he has nothing to share with his good friends on Thanksgiving, but all his friends remind him that he's special and loved just for himself, not for his food.
