Synopsis: When calamity stalks every step of the preparations for the Tappletons' Thanksgiving dinner, they realize that there is more to Thanksgiving than turkey and trimmings.

Craft ideas:

  • Draw a "photo album" like the one in the book of Thanksgiving at your house.
  • What else could each of the Tappletons have done to solve the problem? Redraw the end of the story a different way.
