This book is a complete treasure. I was captivated by the words and illustrations and can imagine every young reader being so as well. This is a book I am going to purchase for my own library and to have on hand for anytime kids visit my home and want to read a story or be read to. The following author's note is in the front cover of this book: "The words in this book are based on the Thanksgiving Address, an ancient message of peace and appreciation of Mother Earth and all her inhabitants. These words of thanks come to us from the Native people known as the Haudenosaunee, also known as the Iriquois or Six Nations - Mohawk, Oneida, Cayuga, Onondaga, Seneca, and Tuscarora. The people of the Six Nations are from upstate New York and Canada. These words are still spoken at ceremonial and governmental gatherings held by the Six Nations. Children, too, are taught to greet the world each morning by saying thank you to all living things. They learn that according to Native American tradition, people everywhere are embraced as family. Our diversity, like all the wonders of Nature, is truly a gift for which we are thankful."
Once again, the 2018 Reading Challenge is saved thanks to Storytime Planning! *PPG theme*
A sweet book that I can read to my kiddos on Thanksgiving without being total garbage or ONLY about the pilgrims. Would be perfect for a baby savasana during a yoga themed storytime.
