NON-FICTION THANKSGIVING HISTORY & CUSTOMS
| | | | Simple text introduces children to the struggles of the Pilgrims during their first year at Plymouth Colony and the events leading to the historic occasion we celebrate today. Ages 4-8. | Beloved author Jean Craighead George traces the passage of time from the melting of the glaciers that created Cape Cod and Plymouth Rock to the moment the Pawtuxet Indians and the Pilgrims met and feasted together. Thomas Locker's luminous paintings give the story a glowing, timeless quality. Ages 4-8. | Easy-to-read, interesting picture-story of the voyage of the Mayflower to the New World, the settlement at Plymouth, and the celebration of the first Thanksgiving Day. Ages 4-8 | | | | Charts the progress of Sarah Hale, whose relentless letters and 38 years of petitioning presidents, secured Thanksgiving's status as a national holiday. Well-told, in a humorous, snappy style. Ages 4-8. | Describes how the Massachusetts Indian Squanto was captured by the British, sold into slavery in Spain, and ultimately returned to the New World to become a guide and friend for the Pilgrims. This engaging book portrays the holiday's religious roots and historical beginnings.
Ages 4-8 | Conveys the spirit and conviction of the Pilgrim experience, but also provides a bounty of historical information and domestic detail about the settlement at Plimoth and the people who survived those arduous first seasons in America. Beautiful, rich illustrations. Age 4-8. | | | | What was it like being part of the historic harvest festival that inspired our modern holiday? How did the children contribute to the feast? What did they wear? Did they have turkey and pumpkin pie? Answers these questions and others about the festival, life in the new settlement of Plymouth, and more. Ages 4-8. | The story of the most truly American holiday and the development of its symbols and legends. Ages 9-12. | Plimoth Plantation & National Geographic tell the true story behind the voyage of the Mayflower—offering kids a compelling account that’s quite different from the story traditionally told. Vibrant photos of a historic reenactment plus informative text based on rigorous research and primary sources reveal new details about what the ship’s passengers wore, ate, hoped, dreamed, did to pass the long hours during the voyage, and faced after landing in the place they called Plymouth. Ages 8-12 |
