A
book to celebrate my favorite holiday--Thanksgiving! Give
Thanks to the Lord (illustrated by Amy June Bates) is told from the point of
view of one young member of an extended family and celebrates all the
joys of the autumn holiday, from the arrival of distant relatives to
a cozy house filled with noisy good cheer to apple cider and the delicious
smells of roasting turkey and baking pies. And just when mouths are
watering, the family sits down, holds hands, and says a prayer of thanks
to God for food and fun and family, all the wonderful things we see.
Young readers will delight in each tender rhyme as they learn to appreciate
their own many blessings in this full-color picture book for kids.
