A story about hunters going out for a turkey during Thanksgiving.

great book to show off holidays to the students. ( )

This book is great in the classroom for thanksgiving time. It talks about how the brother didn't want to have turkey so he hid it. ( )

This tradebook was a fiction children's book. The Pilgrim brothers are searching for a turkey for Thanksgiving dinner. The little brother doesn't want a turkey, and tries to hide the turkey. The turkey keeps running away and hiding, so eventually the brothers bring home a pumpkin instead. I thought this book didn't explain Thanksgiving very well. Especially with the conversations held in class, the Pilgrims are wearing clothing that people "thought" they wore. And there is always the stereotype of having turkey on Thanksgiving. The illustrations looked like they were done in water color. There were vibrant colors to show that it is fall when Thanksgiving comes around. I wouldn't use this book in a classroom. It doesn't have much to do with Thanksgiving, and it isn't teaching what Thanksgiving is all about. ( )
