Publisher Comments:
We the people of the United States...
Almost Lost Thanksgiving
Yes. That's right!
Way back when skirts were long and hats were tall Americans were forgetting Thanksgiving, and nobody seemed to care!
Thankfully, Sarah Hale appeared. More steadfast than Plymouth Rock, this lady editor knew the holiday needed saving. But would her recipe for rescue ever convince Congress and the presidents?
Join acclaimed author Laurie Halse Anderson on a journey of a woman and a pen that spanned four decades, the Civil War, and five presidents, all so you could have your turkey and eat it too!
Synopsis:
A National Book Award finalist teams up with a celebrated illustrator to tell the story of Sarah Hale, who in the 1800s began a letter-writing campaign to designate a day to celebrate the Pilgrims' arrival in America. Full color.
