Summary: Thanksgiving Day
Review: Thanksgiving Day, by Anne Rockwell, conveys the story of Thanksgiving through colorful pictures and historical facts. The story itself is being told by Charlie, a student in Mrs. Madoff's class. Charlie and his classmates have put on a Thanksgiving Day play. The play has helped the students learn about the events and the people from that "first" Thanksgiving. I really like this book. Any reader would enjoy the brightly illustrated pictures and the lessons being taught. Halloween Day is another good example of Anne Rockwell and Lizzy Rockwell's ability to portray historical facts through an enjoyable story with the use of vivid illustrations.
