Description: This listing is for a vintage children's story book recently purchased from a local estate sale. It is "The Thanksgiving Story" by Alice Dalgliesh. It was illustrated by Helen Sewell. This is a book to read aloud to children when they first want to know why we have Thanksgiving Day. Children a little older may read it themselves. The story tells of one family on the Mayflower, of their hardships on the voyage and during the first winter. It tells, too, of joy in the arrival of their new baby, of spring in their new home, of planting, harvest, and the giving of thanks." The cover is pictorial boards and it comes with the original dust jacket. It was published in 1954 by Charles Scribner's Sons. Condition: There is a gift inscription to a niece from an aunt on the inside cover page and some scuffs and wear on the cover and spine. The dust jacket has been price clipped and there is a lot of wear and tear. . The cover and pages of the book are bright and clean and the binding is tight.
