Happy Friday Everyone!!!!!

It is rather a dreary day here in the midwest.  It is cloudy. cool and raining.  It is cozy and warm in my home though and I am very thankful for that.  My daughter and I have put up our trees.  We have three trees this year in our living room.  There is one 6 foot tall tree and two small ones.  We made a memory tree this year the first year we have ever done that.  I have ornaments that my mother made with pictures of my parents, grandparents, and my daughter Stacey.  We miss each one of them so we thought it  would be nice to remember them with a special tree.  The rest of the tree is decorated with angels.  So the trees help to make it cozy and warm in our house.  I hope your house is warm and cozy this November day.

Today I would like to share another Thanksgiving  book with you.  I hope you will get to share it with a child before Thanksgiving arrives.

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving

by 

Charles M.  Schulz

Who doesn't love Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Linus, and the gang?  Everyone loves Charlie Brown I think.

In this story Peppermint Patty invites herself, and two friends to Charlie's house for Thanksgiving dinner.  Charlie tried to tell them he is going to his grandmother's house for Thanksgiving but he never gets it out.  So Linus and Snoopy help him plan a Thanksgiving dinner for his friends before he goes to his grandmother's house.  The fun part of the book is to see what they fix for the dinner. Kids will love that part.  It has a really great ending and it does help children to know what Thanksgiving is about and how we should celebrate it.  It is a great story and will be enjoyed by all the kids.  So I hope you get a chance to share it with a child before Thanksgiving.
