Overview / 简介: |
Thanksgiving is here! Jesse can't wait because this year all the relatives are coming to his house. When everyone arrives, they sit down to dinner and round the table (and the turkey!) they go, each taking turns to remember the year's blessings. Aunt Terry and Uncle Dave give thanks for their family and the adoption of their daughter, Kaitlyn. Jonah says thanks for his winning home run. And Uncle Hershey is grateful for the wonderful Thanksgiving dinner.

From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
Kimmelman's (Hanukkah Lights, Hanukkah Nights) round-the-table expressions of gratitude in verse bog down with forced rhymes and cloying characterizations. As a large family gathers, young Jesse sets the tone: "They're coming for turkey/ and stuffing and pie,/ for hugs and for kisses/ and handshakes and `hi.' " Once seated for the meal, Nana suggests they each express their thanks. Cousin Milo describes holding the flag at the school assembly ("Everybody came:/ the principal, the teachers,/ and Mayor What's-His-Name"); Susan talks about her speech therapist ("Every Thurthday, all latht year,/ I went to thee Mith Vandermeer"). Cote's (The Can-Do Thanksgiving) spot illustrations, as simpering as the text, do little to flesh out the speakers. Ages 5-8. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
I think that thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. This book is just like my family. We always have something to share about what we are grateful for and it is a good idea for families to remember to do on thanksgiving. This book is great for that. |
