How Delightful to Have Derek Anderson illustrate a Thanksgiving Book!

Derek Anderson is one of my favorite book illustrators, and how wonderful it is to see him illustrate this well-loved verse in a Thanksgiving book. I was lucky enough to see the illustrations months ago when Anderson did a signing at the Red Balloon in St. Paul, the Twin Cities leading children's ...

Albuquerque Turkey1 review

Sterling, 2005

A Veggie Thanksgiving?!

After reading another turkey book too many times, I just picked it up because a turkey was front and center, and I was hoping ...

FIVE STARS FOREVER for "Thank you, Sarah"

+ Thank You, Laurie Halse Anderson
+ A spoonful of humor helps the history go down

Yippie-Skippie for Laurie Halse Anderson, a descendant of Sarah Josepha Buell Hale! Laurie seems to be every bit as bold, brave, stubborn and smart as her main character, Sarah. This 2002 juvenile literature has loose Rockwell-like drawings in soft, harvest colors. Each page logically flows into ...
