Book cover from Goodreads
Lyrical prose and luminous illustrations welcome the arrival of fall in a season of community and thanksgiving.
Gather twigs and sticks to nest. Gather safety, strength, and rest. Gather up and fly away. Gather close. Prepare to stay. *Taken from Goodreads
This is a beautiful fall book. I love that it never actually uses the word Thanksgiving. Starting with the animals gathering to get ready for winter, all the way to people gathering to share a meal (Thanksgiving looking feast). I also love that it includes "gathering apart". With the use of technology, children see a way to gather with family who may be far away.
