Thanksgiving Books

Now that November has begun, I pulled out our Thanksgiving-themed books.  I plan to read them at bedtime to Leah and Sam (and Olivia, Julie, and Clay too if they want to listen!).  I have three or four longer Pilgrim type books, but for this year I am only going to read the shorter ones.  Here are the books that I have:


  • Who's That Stepping on Plymouth Rock? by Jean Fritz
  • If You Sailed on the Mayflower in 1620 by Ann McGovern
  • Thanksgiving Is...by Gail Gibbons
  • The Pilgrims of Plimoth by Marcia Sewall
  • The Pilgrims' First Thanksgiving by Ann McGovern
  • Three Young Pilgrims by Cheryl Harness
  • The Pilgrims at Plymouth by Lucille Recht Penner
  • N.C. Wyeth's Pilgrims by Robert San Souci
  • Plimoth Plantation a Pictoral Guide, text by James W. Baker
Some of these are short enough to read in one night, and others will take a couple of nights or more.  These books will certainly get us in the spirit of Thanksgiving!

  1. Have you all read Old Fashioned Thanksgiving by Louisa M Alcott? We LOVE that story! Thanks for this list of suggestions - Sunshine
