Spot's Thanksgiving

It’s a cute little story about Thanksgiving. Very simple. My granddaughter loves the dog!

This is perfect for your early readers. They can easily identify the words with a helper.

This was a fun gift to give my granddaughter for Thanksgiving as they had just gotten a new puppy named Spot

The only drawback about adoring the Spot the dog series is that my children continue to hunger for more. Finally Eric Hill has thrown us another bone. Spot's Thanksgiving dishes up bold, playful color and simple text ideal for toddler read-alouds or older children read-alongs. This particular tale stresses sentiments fitting for this holiday: manners (Spot helps his mom in the kitchen with the pumpkin pie), quality time with family (Grandpa and Grandma come for dinner) and patriotism (an American flag waves from the center of the pie). While this book did not have the popular lift-the-flaps found in other Eric Hill books, such as the newly released Spot's Treasure Hunt or in Spot Can Count, my daughters (ages 3.75 and 2 years) still requested it again and again.

My French friends got Spot's Halloween and Spot's Christmas and their baby loves the books. I got this one for them for Thanksgiving and it was a hit. Very cute. And they are learning how to say "pumpkin" properly. Lol

My grandson loves this book

I like this book because it focuses on Spot helping to make a pie for his family fro Thanksgiving. No history about a dodgey holiday, just a celebration of a family meal!

Perfect for the holiday

The children in Nursey totally loved this book and enjoyed sitting down listening. Thanks giving made simple. I would recommend this book to any nursery setting or parents looking to educate children on different cultures.

感謝祭がテーマの絵本は難しい！、というのが正直なところ。スポットがカボチャ・パイを作り、おじいちゃん、おばあちゃんを感謝祭のご馳走に招待するという内容です。でも、ご馳走はカボチャ・パイだけ。七面鳥もトウモロコシもないのがちょっと淋しいところ。また、この本にはSpotものには珍しくフラップがないのでめくる楽しみもありません。随所に星条旗が出てくるので、「感謝祭＝アメリカのお祭り」という雰囲気は伝わるかもしれません。

My nephew loved the book. His face when he opened it was so adorable and sat down and asked for it to be read to him straight away.

Quite basic. Not much of a storyline.
