Merry Thanksgiving

by Natasha Wing, Isidre Mones, Richard J. Turner

Overview

Joey mistakenly mails his mom’s grocery list for Thanksgiving dinner to Santa instead of his Christmas wish list. When the family is snowed in and can’t make it to the grocery store, Santa saves the dinner! The hybrid Thanksgiving/Christmas story was written by bestselling author, Natasha Wing, who’s known for her popular The Night Before holiday series based on The Night Before Christmas. “The holidays are a lot of fun, but can be stressful, especially when two butt up against each other. This was a fun way to combine Thanksgiving and Christmas and offer an insight as to how Santa is able to fill out his suit.”

Editorial Reviews

It looks like a winter blizzard has snowed out the Melvin family Thanksgiving. But wait! An unexpected visitor and his reindeer friends arrive to save the day-and the holiday. Isidre Mones's slightly retro illustrations enhance the sweet nostalgia of this storybook.
