Celebrate food and family with this heartwarming Thanksgiving picture book. We will share the risen bread. / Our made-with-love Thanksgiving spread. / Grateful to be warm and fed. / We will share the bread. In this spirited ode to the holiday, set at the turn of the twentieth century, a large family works together to make their special meal. Mama prepares the turkey, Daddy tends the fire, Sister kneads, and Brother bastes. Everyone—from Grandma and Grandpa to the littlest baby—has a special job to do. Told in spare, rhythmic verse and lively illustrations, Sharing the Bread is a perfect read-aloud to celebrate the Thanksgiving tradition. "A warm and wonderful holiday treasure." — Publishers Weekly, Starred "A paean to the pleasures of Thanksgiving, with rhymes so musical readers may just burst into song." — The Wall Street Journal "A delightful holiday book that shows the heartwarming tradition of food and family." — Booklist
