Customer Review: My 5 yr old liked this book since he learned about Thanksgiving, he said it was perfect. My 3 yr old found it boring, he only sat thru part of it.
Customer Review: I had the benefit of being able to glance at the book and hear the music before purchasing the item. In regards to the reviewer who did not care for the music selections, I think purchasers should understand what the Thanksgiving holiday is all about. There is more to it then turkey, football, and... more info
Customer Review: I bought this book for my mom (81 years old), and it brought back amazing memories for her from her teenage years through the first 20 years of her marriage. The package of ornaments shown on page 11 is the identical one my parents had bought (which we still have - most of them, anyway!). She (and... more info

Customer Review: The artwork is exceptional. The observations are terrific. A Christmas book with a different view. Whoever says the good old days, needs to read this book. I love all of John Grossman's books, and this one didn't disappoint.
Customer Review: Allen Salkin is the most creative, quirky writer today. He takes Festivus and gives us a super clean, fun holiday that "the rest of us" can enjoy. Particularly if you can't stand the holidays, you can turn to Festivus - it's like group therapy for holiday nay-sayers. But I love Salkin's writing and... more info
Customer Review: I like some of the pumpkins in this book, but most are just too gory or sick for me to even think about creating. I like, "Cannibal Pumpkin", "Property Defender Pumpkin", "Road Kill Eating Pumpkin", and "Conjoined Twins Pumpkins" (although I could do a much better one than the one shown in the... more info
Customer Review: A beautiful book with creative ideas, like having a family hibernation weekend in February. The author recognizes that not all families are the same and that their traditions should reflect family members' heritage, culture, ethnicity, and personalities. She is also very sensitive to the challenges... more info
