This blog was developed as a resource for teachers who are looking to incorporate high quality and award winning trade books into their social studies curriculum.

Thanksgiving Mice
Thanksgiving Mice
Written by: Bethany Roberts
Illustrated by: Doug Cushman
"It’s Thanksgiving and four adorable mice are putting on a play for their woodland friends in this delightful read-aloud, the fourth book about the holiday mice. Lively verse introduces beginning readers to basic words and rhyming sounds and tells the story of the very first Thanksgiving, when the Pilgrim mice traveled across the sea and settled in America. The simple story-within-a-story format, accompanied by colorful, action-filled illustrations of mice in costume, also serves as a basic introduction to theater."
