This rhyming picture book is about the meaning of present day Thanksgiving to different people. Thanksgiving is cooking, visiting family and friends, traveling, sharing, kindness, shopping, love, pumpkin picking, crafts, looking at family photo albums, welcoming a sibling that comes home from college for the holiday, an autumn hike, watching the parade and football, donating food and enjoying a meal. My Book Eyes likes the examples given that evoke memories of Thanksgiving. Illustrations are diverse, warm and make readers and viewers feel happy.
