Franklin's Thanksgiving
By Paulette Bourgeois and Brenda Clark
A seasonal favorite, this story is helpful for children whose extended family does not live close by, or for those whose usual traditions are changing. Franklin deals with the disappointment of learning that his grandparents will not join them for Thanksgiving, and then he and his family discover that new traditions can be just as enjoyable as old ones and that friends and neighbors can be family too. The illustrations in the Franklin books are so full that they give parents something new to look at even after they have memorized the story from multiple readings.
