Thanksgiving Story by Alice Dalgliesh

Alice Dalgliesh’s charming Caldecott Honor picture book tells the tale behind Thanksgiving for readers young and old. On the packed Mayflower, siblings Giles, Constance, and Damaris Hopkins prepare for a fresh start in the New World, joined by their baby brother Oceanus born mid-voyage. But once ashore, tougher challenges like hunger, cold, and illness threaten their new home. Luckily, with some friendly help from Native Americans, they just might pull through to enjoy a bountiful harvest that will be remembered for years to come!
