15 Fantastic Thanksgiving Books

We celebrate Thanksgiving because of the very first Thanksgiving that the Pilgrims enjoyed. Did you know that the Pilgrims didn’t observe a Thanksgiving feast every year? My children learned a few interesting facts about the history of Thanksgiving when they made Thanksgiving Succotash.

In the mid-1800’s Sarah Josepha Hale (author of “Mary had a Little Lamb”) proposed that Thanksgiving should be a national holiday.

In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed the last Thursday in November officially Thanksgiving.

Then, in 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a bill into law stating that the fourth Thursday in November would be Thanksgiving!

And that’s how we gained our Thanksgiving holiday! Now, enjoy these fantastic Thanksgiving books your kids are sure to love!
