A beautifully illustrated celebration of bounty and gratitude, family
and friendship, perfect for the holidays and every day.
This is the table that Grandad built.
These are the sunflowers picked by my cousins,
set on the table that Grandad built.
In a unique take on the cumulative classic "This Is the House That Jack
Built," a family gathers with friends and neighbors to share a meal
around a table that brims with associations: napkins sewn by Mom,
glasses from Mom and Dad's wedding, silverware gifted to Dad by his
grandma long ago. Not to mention the squash from the garden, the bread
baked by Gran, and the pies made by the young narrator (with a little
help). Serving up a diverse array of dishes and faces, this warm and
welcoming story is poised to become a savored part of Thanksgiving
traditions to come.
