The Plymouth Thanksgiving
by Leonard Weisgard Author
A picture book with a researched, historical accounting of the beginnings of the Plymouth Plantation and community. Begins with a simple explanation of why they could not worship in England, ends with the praising of God for bringing them through the hardships. Written by a Caldecott Medal winner. "In simple prose and richly detailed illustrations Leonard Weisgard tells the story of the first pilgrims who sailed for America in 1620. The perilous journey, the devastating first winter, the friendship of Chief Massasoit, and the generosity and wisdom of Squanto all come to life in this stirring account that culminates in the first Thanksgiving celebration." - inside jacket
