The Peterkins' Thanksgiving

Title: The Peterkins' Thanksgiving

Author: adapted by Elizabeth Spurr, original story  by Lucretia P. Hale, illustrations by  Wendy Anderson Halperin

Published: 2005

Pages: 30


Sometimes people get invited over to a family dinner or a friend's house only to walk away thinking, 'those people are totally nuts!  I can't wait until they invite me over again!'  A little chaos around the holidays can be a welcome comic relief.  

Sharing Thanksgiving with the Peterkins' was just a delight.  Getting eight people to the table was challenging enough, but then the cook announced that the dinner was "stuck"...in the dumbwaiter.

"What to do?  Our meal was stuck between floors!"

Make sure you save room for this sweet morsel of a book during the holiday season.  And, if you're able to back away from the table long enough, you can check out The Peterkins' Christmas.
