What a lovely overview of this very special holiday's history and traditions along with all kinds of interesting facts and tidbits of information! For example, did you  know it was Josepha Hale, the author of "Mary Had A Little Lamb" who first started a  campaign to have Thanksgiving declared a day for national Thanksgiving way back in 1827? Or that Abraham Lincoln was responsible for making it a public holiday to be celebrated on the final Thursday in Nov.? I especially loved the list of fun facts at the back of the book. Definitely a great read for kids and parents alike! ;)
