FREE: THE VERY FIRST THANKSGIVING DAY by RHONDA GREENE

The listing, THE VERY FIRST THANKSGIVING DAY by RHONDA GREENE has ended.

PAPERBACK historical children's story of the first harvest, illustrated, 32 pages in like-new condition.
This is a beautifully illustrated picture book for young children about the original Thanksgiving feast for the pilgrims and indians (the author's preferred term based on historical precedence, as she explains in the Foreword). The text is placed into a gentle rhyme that takes us back to the landing at Plymouth rock, where a series of lovely paintings then depict the people's lives in their village by the harbor that first year.
It is obvious that the illustrator put a lot of careful attention into researching for historical accuracy. This is a teaching technique that is particularly effective for an age group in which a picture is truly worth a thousand words.
