Sharing the Bread: An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving Story

Set at the turn of the twentieth century, this picture book follows a large family as they prepare their Thanksgiving meal together. Each family member has a special job: Mama prepares the turkey, Daddy tends the fire, Sister kneads the bread, and Brother bastes, while Grandma, Grandpa, and the baby also participate in the preparations. The simple, rhyming text shows how the family works together to create their made-with-love Thanksgiving spread.
