At Our Table

Description

A fresh and inclusive portrayal of Thanksgiving that celebrates sharing, community, family, food, and respect for America's first inhabitants.

Here is a lyrical, vibrant tribute to the diversity of America coming together as one rich tapestry of gratitude, elegantly penned by debut author Patrick Hulse and illustrated in joyful colors by Chickasaw artist Madelyn Goodnight.

At our table there is room to share a seat... room for old traditions and new ones... room to remember where our food comes from... and room to give thanks.

There are countless ways we celebrate and give to others on Thanksgiving. The goodness we share lasts the rest of the year--and sometimes for a lifetime. From joyful preparation of food, to quiet reflection honoring farmers and Native communities, to cherished moments of laughter with friends or family...there is always room for making more memories together.
