Children's Book of Thanksgiving Stories

This one is exactly what the title would indicate—a select collection of children's stories closely connected with our American festival.

The short descriptive note placed before each story will be of use in choosing a tale suited to one's audience in reading aloud.

May the present volume make as many friends as did its older brother!
