This is just a sampling of what I would recommend. We hit the library yesterday and they had all of their Thanksgiving Day books set in a section by themselves.



This book focuses more on the what we are thankful for part instead of the first Thanksgiving. This book is cute and thought provoking for children.



A beautifully illustrated introduction to the first Thanksgiving. The recommended ages for this book is 4 to 8. It is a little so long so if your 4 year-old can’t sit through a story, this wouldn’t be for him.



My kids love this book. We actually read it all year long. It is a countdown of turkeys as they fall off of a fence.



One of my favorite songs/story when I was growing up was “There was an old lady who swallowed a fly”. This incredibly goofy book gives us a twist to match Thanksgiving. It is about a lady relative going for Thanksgiving dinner and she eat the pie before she gets there. Then she “Swallows some cider, to moisten the pie”. This one is just too cute to pass up!
