My problem with this book is what other people seem to think is the strength - the illustrations.
This is another book that romanticizes the First Thanksgiving. The Pilgrims and Wampanoag are smiling so hard their eyes are closed. It looks like summer and everyone is just so very happy and cheerful & the celebration looks like how we would act it out, but not so much like it probably was.

Breath taking detailed illustrations and a sequential storyline. A little two wordy for my toddler.

My niece made this choice last night. It has beautiful art and the counting is somewhat interesting. It gives the flavor of a cozy Thanksgiving.
I think this was below her level and she wanted to read it anyway. She can count.

This is a cute counting book which tells the traditional first Thanksgiving story. I love the artwork. I like that the Wampanoag tribe is named instead or calling people Indians or Native Americans in general, like in other stories.
