and jack-o-lanterns lose their smiles,
when branches lie bare,
and corn stalks rustle in the wind,
that’s when it’s time for

This story follows along as one family packs up and heads out into the woods. There, they are greeted by family and friends.

This story is filled with lyrical text and beautiful illustrations. It would be a great way to start a discussion about the different Thanksgiving traditions your students celebrate!
