The Thanksgiving season is a wonderful time to teach children about the virtue of gratitude. Even at a young age, kids can learn how to express thankfulness, especially through the examples in Thanksgiving books that demonstrate this virtue. Our collection this week includes books about celebrating gratitude as well as books about the meaning of the Thanksgiving holiday.

Crazy question, but are you having trouble with the images from Amazon showing up in your blog, too? I’m seeing that space before the Thanksgiving books and wondering if that’s where you had book images – because this is a huge issue I’m having and I can’t figure out why! Hope you’re having a great week!

  Yes, Lisa, it happens on and off with Amazon images. I think the problem is on Amazon’s end.
