An early education class made up of farm and forest animals discovers the history, traditions, and true meaning of Thanksgiving. Mrs. Wright, the teacher bear, asks the circle of students a question: “What one special thing about the holiday would you give thanks for.” This question gets class members rooting for football, sweet potatoes and marshmallows, and the relatively new ritual of “shopping.” Mrs. Wright asks who knows about the first Thanksgiving, and then sets the class to preparing for its own celebration. The only student stumped by the various questions is Sam the bear—he can think of neither his favourite Thanksgiving ritual nor a Thanksgiving project. But he manages, finally, to come up with a stunning combination of both when he unveils his replica of the Thanksgiving Day Parade balloons. Bolstered by warm watercolour cartoon illustrations, this book is a perfect delivery system for a wealth of knowledge about Thanksgiving, with the story suggesting that family and friends are the main things to be thankful for. Preschool-Grade 2. --Connie Fletcher
