Thanksgiving Picture Books


We're in for our first winter weather situation today here on Drywood Creek.  It looks like our area is expecting about 12 inches of snow over the next 36 hours with blowing and drifting.  What a great time to hunker down with a good book!  With the season of giving thanks upon us, I thought I'd share some of our favorite Thanksgiving titles for young children.


On the Mayflower by Kate Waters
Across the Wide and Dark Sea by Jean Van Leeuwen
Squanto, Friend of the Pilgrims by Clyde Robert Bulla
Three Young Pilgrims by Cheryl Harness
Squanto and the Miracle Thanksgiving by Eric Metaxas
The Thanksgiving Story by Alice Dalgliesh
Giving Thanksgiving: The 1621 Harvest Feast by Kate Waters
Cranberry Thanksgiving by Wende and Harry Devlin - This is also a Five in a Row title.  You can see the lapbook Riley completed here
Stories of the Pilgrims by Margaret B. Pumphrey - We actually read the original version of this book online here.

What are your favorite Thanksgiving titles?  Feel free to leave a comment below :)
