Thanksgiving Day,
By Sarah Kuhn (Richmond, Kentucky USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Thanksgiving Day (Trophy Picture Books) (Hardcover)
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.

Correct Reference to the Wampanoag People, Not Indians,
This review is from: Thanksgiving Day (Paperback)
This book makes the correct reference to Pilgrims and the Wampanoag people, not Pilgrims and Indians. It is always preferred to use the name of a tribe, instead of the catch-all "Native American" or "Indian." So I was thrilled to see there was a Thanksgiving book where I didn't have to use white out and write over "Indian"!
