The Thanksgiving Story is a Caldecott Honor classic by Alice Dalgliesh, illustrated with folk-art-inspired color prints by Helen Sewell.

Published in 1954, this beloved picture book tells the story of the first Thanksgiving through the eyes of one Pilgrim family, keeping both text and illustrations intentionally simple so that the human experience of the journey and the harvest celebration comes through with warmth and immediacy.

A true mid-century treasure and a staple of Thanksgiving reading for generations.

Condition: Good. Hardcover with no dust jacket. The boards show shelf wear and some bumping at the corners, and the cover has light soiling consistent with its age and school library use. Two library barcode stickers are present on the front cover, and an additional catalog label appears at the bottom. A library stamp is visible on the title page. Interior pages are age-toned but clean and fully intact
