Thanksgiving story · ages 2-7A personalized Thanksgiving book about gratitude, starring your child
Every Thanksgiving the family hangs paper leaves on a Thankful Tree, and this year your child made the most. Then one big gust of wind sends all twelve leaves flying. With Nutmeg the squirrel, your little one chases them past the farm stand, the duck pond and the apple orchard, helping someone at every stop.
Along the way your child finds a neighbor who would have spent the holiday alone. It's a cozy story about gratitude, kindness and always making room for one more at the table. Add your child's first name and one photo, and they're painted into every illustration of this 32-page picture book.
