This children's picture book is written by Children's Poet Laureate, Jack Prelutsky, and contains twelve poems about thanksgiving. The poems cover many different aspects of the holiday, its history, some of the traditions, the wishbone, leftovers, and football. Most of the poems fit the category narrative poems from the poetry genre, because they are used to tell a story. In this book, there are twelve short stories told using rhymes and narrative poetry. It’s Thanksgiving is a collection of poems about Thanksgiving that tell a story. It is also a picture book written as a fourth level reader. The Illustrations a drawn in browns and oranges, that helps set the stage and mood of the story. The poems are also humorous. Personal reflection: Reading the poems made me laugh and brought back memories of how Thanksgiving was when I was a child. I found the illustrations fun and helps tell the poems. I would like to read this during the week before Thanksgiving break.

Prelutsky and Hafner, who have collaborated on other holiday poem collections - It's Halloween, It's Christmas - do a capable job with It's Thanksgiving, which first saw print in 1982, as part of Greenwillow Books' "Read-Alone" series of beginning readers, and which has subsequently been included in Harper's more famous "I Can Read" collection. The poems are, with the exceptions noted above, appealing, and the artwork humorous. The illustrations have a very 80s feel to me, which makes sense, given the date of publication, and which made me feel somewhat nostalgic for the kind of book I would check out of the public library as a girl. That said, I don't think they're so dated that they won't have any appeal for today's child reader. Recommended to anyone looking for Thanksgiving early readers, although vegetarians might want to give it a miss, given the omnipresence of turkeys and turkey consumption, in these poems. ( )
