Sharing the Bread: An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving Story
Pat Zietlow Miller, illustrated by Jill McElmurry
An old-fashioned Thanksgiving story follows an extended family as each person helps prepare a shared holiday meal. Family members tend the fire, bake bread, baste turkey, cook berries, make pie, mash potatoes, and pour cider, while a baby sleeps until the meal is served. Patterned text and gouache illustrations place the lively household in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century. The story centers on food, work, and gathering at the table.
