The First Thanksgiving
A 13-page illustrated eBook that tells how the Pilgrims crossed the ocean, what they found at Plymouth, and how the first Thanksgiving came to be.
Perfect for Children Ages 5-8 yrs
History They Can Picture
Children meet real people on a real journey, so Thanksgiving becomes a story they can retell instead of a date on the calendar.
Reading Comprehension
Short passages, read aloud or read alone, build the stamina to follow a story across many pages and remember what happened.
Vocabulary
Words like voyage, harvest, and settlement arrive with a painting beside them, which is how new words stay.
Visual Literacy
Looking closely at a painting from the period, and talking about what the people are doing, teaches children to read pictures and not only words.
