For those in Canada, Thanksgiving has been and gone. But, for those in America, Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away, and on the minds of many people.

Do you know any good books about Thanksgiving? If so, please tell us about them in this thread.

I don't know about any, personally. So I'm hoping someone can come and post some suggestions.

Candace | 4 comments Hi! I have a few suggestions. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays so I am always on the look out for a good Thanksgiving read! Here are a few I like:
Squanto and the Miracle of Thanksgiving
Cranberry Thanksgiving
If You Were At The First Thanksgiving
Also, I really like Samuel Eaton's Day: A Day in the Life of a Pilgrim Boy even though it doesn't really have anything to do with Thanksgiving.

Candace | 4 comments Your very welcome! :) The author of Samuel Eaton's Day: A Day in the Life of a Pilgrim Boy, Kate Waters has a lot of other good children's books based around the pilgrims and Thanksgiving.

Jen Garrett | 148 comments Thanks, Candace! I just found Sacajawea of the Shoshone. While not strictly Thanksgiving, still follows along the theme.

Ali Pfautz | 20 comments These book suggestions are great. Sacajawea of the Shoshone looks very interesting. I like having these topic specific threads!

If any of you are looking for a softer book for Thanksgiving, The Great Thanksgiving Escape is very cute!
