Fall is my favorite time of year!
The cooler weather, the beautiful leaves, the smell in the air…so
many things to be grateful for! As a mom
and an OT, I love to find books, crafts, and other fun activities to go with
every season and holiday. Below are some
of my favorite books for Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving Is for
Giving Thanks
Sure, Thanksgiving is
about pilgrims and history--and turkey, of course!--but most importantly, it's
a holiday all about everything that we are thankful for. Cheerful, colorful
illustrations accompany the simple text in this celebration of family, friends,
and the holiday that brings them all together.
10 Fat Turkeys
This silly rhyming
story about ten turkeys teaches children how to count backwards. Girls and boys
will gobble up this hilarious story about ten goofy turkeys and their silly
antics: swinging from a vine, strutting on a boar, doing a noodle dance, and
more. Veteran author Tony Johnston has written a joyful text, which first-time
illustrator Richard Deas brings to life as wild and wacky fun!
Turkey Trouble
Turkey is in trouble.
Bad trouble. The kind of trouble where it's almost Thanksgiving . . . and
you're the main course. But Turkey has an idea--what if he doesn't look like a
turkey? What if he looks like another animal instead? After many hilarious
attempts, Turkey comes up with the perfect disguise to make this Thanksgiving
the best ever!
