5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful, fact-filled, must-have book for Thanksgiving
This book was given to us when our son was born almost two years ago. I later bought a copy for my sister as well. Last year I couldn't find it after the move, and this year my almost-four-years-old daughter is just beginning to understand the rudimentary concept of a holiday for thankfulness. As I have explored this book with her, I am so excited to share the heritage of the Pilgrims and the true story of God's providence in that epic adventure. I can see this book being used year after year for many annual remembrances.One fantastic feature of the book is the way it is organized. There are two sizes of fonts, and the larger font is the "abridged" version for smaller children or a shorter time frame. Reading both sets of fonts gives the expanded story, and additionally there are sidebar articles to further deepen the information.And the book is beautiful! I keep mine displayed on our mantle, and the outside is just a glimpse of how lovely the inside is as well.Another unexpected bonus is the music CD which is included. I listened to it for the first time this month, and was delighted by this stately set of piano renditions of Thanksgiving, harvest, and praise hymns and songs. It has been played many times since and will no doubt accompany the festive food preparations this Thursday.(Taken from my blog review at [...]
5.0 out of 5 stars Surprise find!
I first became acquainted with this book when I picked it up at a church book give-away. It is an absolute treasure! As I began reading it, I knew it is a book that I want to give to my children to read to our grandchildren. I promptly bought a second copy and have already given it to our son's family. I'm continuing to read through it, and will give this copy to our daughter's family when I next have occasion to see her. As mentioned in some of the other reviews, there are two size fonts with the larger being intended to read to younger children and the smaller font adding even more detail as you decide they are ready to listen and learn from the additional history. It's great to find the story of Thanksgiving that includes so much more than the watered-down versions that are being taught to our children today. And a wonderful bonus, if you are fortunate enough to find a copy that includes the CD, is the beautiful arrangements of some timeless songs of gratitude and thanksgiving included on it!The book could be read at anytime of the year, but will make this next year's Thanksgiving season even more special if read over a period of time leading up to Thanksgiving Day. And can be used over and over again.
5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book! as well as a great, (honest/quick shipping) used book seller!
This is a wonderful book for adding special additional touches to Thanksgiving memories. I purchased "very good" used copy and it arrived a few days earlier than stated and it VERY good condition (basically 'like new' in my opinion). I am very happy with both the book and the seller.
5.0 out of 5 stars Historical Heirloom
What an heirloom book for preserving our country's Christian heritage! I am thrilled that Barbara Rainey wrote this book. An added bonus is that you can read an abbreviated account or the full one. They are both available on each page. My kids have loved hearing these rousing true accounts of the pioneers.

Very enjoyable and educational. Not to crazy about the music on second disc.
5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful
The Thanksgiving music on this CD is beautiful and worshipful. The audio is also well done. I would definitely recommend.
5.0 out of 5 stars What I expected and more
I checked this book out at a library and decided I had to purchase it. It provides wonderful historical information and encouraging thoughts that assist in helping families focus on being thankful. This is something that we can pull out year after year to reflect on those who first celebrated thanksgiving, and then come together and reflect on the many blessings that we have now. I love the lined notes in the back that will allow us to journal these thoughts so we will always be able to look at holidays past and present (which is why I bought the book). This book is to Thanksgiving what Luke chapter 2 and Twas the Night Before Christmas are to Christmas. A must have for the Thanksgiving holiday!

This is the most thoroughly researched and beautifully written book on thanksgiving I have ever seen. It is a great resource for a holiday program, or for family use and celebration. Beautifully illustrated, it is accompanied by a cd and the combination makes it a true winner. I ordered it for all my family members as a keepsake and from which to teach their children.
