The Day Jesus Was Born comes a charming story that introduces the Thanksgiving holiday to young readers.
This is the food, gathered and blessed,
the corn and sweet berries, and wild turkey dressed,
shared on the very first Thanksgiving Day. Join author Rhonda Gowler Greene and illustrator Susan Gaber on a journey back to the very first Thanksgiving Day, when two societies came together to feast and honor the earth's bounty in peace.
Told in gentle, cumulative rhyme, Greene's story features two young girls--a Native American and a Pilgrim, each clutching a doll to her chest, each intrigued by the other--who bring about the heartwarming finale to the book. Full color.
"Breathtaking paintings."
