Over the River and Through the Wood by Lydia Maria Child
The horse is ready, the air is bracing, and everyone is bundled into the sleigh. So let the wind blow and the snow start to fall! This family is off to Grandfather's house for a delicious feast. Over the River and Through the Wood by Lydia Maria Child illustrated by Matt Tavares was published in 1844.
The illustrations in this book are amazing and really grab the attention of everyone who reads it. I love that in the back of the book is the song lyrics in case that you want to sing rather then read aloud. My kids really liked this book and recognized the song. They didn't realize it was a song written about Thanksgiving though. I loved reading this book and it was really hard to read it without singing it. This book is really easy to read aloud and have some fun thanksgiving projects to go along with it.
