Thanksgiving is turkey, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. It is a holiday for remembering the Pilgrims and the Indians. Most of all, it is a time to share with family and friends, and a time to give thanks for many blessings.

Review by School Library Journal Review

PreS-Gr 3-What is Thanksgiving? Gail Gibbons provides simple and interesting answers in this video presentation of her book (Holiday House, 2004). Qarie Marshall narrates in a calm, steady voice, with clear enunciation and nice pacing. Gibbons presents facts about other harvest festivals in different cultures and times, as well as the first Thanksgiving, holiday symbols, and other activities associated with the day. Canada's Thanksgiving is also briefly mentioned. The author/illustrator's watercolor illustrations are scanned, allowing readers to see a close view of her artwork, and there is some minor animation added. This effectively done presentation provides a clear and interesting overview, and would be a useful addition to school library collections.-Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary, Federal Way, WA (c) Copyright 2014.
