This sweet picture book about being thankful is a great way to celebrate Thanksgiving with the youngest readers!

Thanksgiving is about pilgrims and history--and turkey, of course!--but most importantly, it's a holiday all about everything that we are thankful for. Cheerful, colorful illustrations accompany the simple text in this celebration of family, friends, and the holiday that brings them all together. A great introduction to the concept of giving thanks and appreaciating every day things.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Thanksgiving book for younger kids
Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2015

We have owned this great little book for about four years now, and both of my kids have enjoyed it thoroughly. It has a great message about being thankful for everyday things in our lives (family, pets, even hot chocolate on a cold day), and the illustrations are warm and inviting. It's a great length for a toddler to sit through, and the pictures offer plenty of details to discuss (i.e. "How many cats are in the window?" "Can you find a red lollipop?"). We first purchased it when my now-six year old was two; now that she's in first grade, the language is simple enough that she can (very proudly) read it to her younger brother, so it's also a good choice for early independent reading. (The illustrations also feature a lot of good clues for beginning readers who are taught to use pictures to help them figure out unfamiliar words.)
The only negative comment I have--and this is a matter of preference/philosophy--is a page where one of the characters says that his parents love him when he's "good, and even when I'm not so good." If you focus on behavior as good/bad rather than the child, you'll need to do a quick edit, but it's one isolated instance in an otherwise excellent book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspires Thankfulness
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2015

Short and sweet little book, perfect for young children who don't quite understand the point of Thanksgiving. Does not mention pilgrims/early settlers, etc so would not be offensive to those who do not celebrate that particular aspect of the holiday. Emphasizes giving thanks for big and small things in life. Big things being the love of family and small things being lollipops. Very simple and sweet.

Bought this book as a replacement. I loved my first one so much and read it numerous times over the years with my students that the pages were getting tattered. It's a wonderful non-religious story about saying thanks and appreciating what you have. Which is so important for children (and adults) to remember nowadays. It's written so children understand. Beautiful illustrations makes me miss growing up in the north with the change of seasons!
