Discover the amazing true story of how one Native American's suffering, generosity, and friendship led to the first Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims, by New York Times bestselling author Eric Metaxas.In... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Really like Metaxas. Have several of his excellent books. This one is a 20 page illustrated kid’s book. What? Not a serious historical book. VERY DISAPPOINTED

This is an excellent resource to teach children the true meaning of Thanksgiving and how much God loves each of his children and has a wonderful plan for all of them. I would definitely recommend this book!
Squanto and the Miracle of Thanksgiving
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
A wonderful and accurate children's book about the first Thanksgiving. In a society where 'primary source documentation' and truth do not seem to matter anymore, this book brings back the factual account of Squanto and God's mighty power and grace. The illustrations are beautiful and the book is short enough so a very young reader will not lose interest. This children's book will be an inspiration to all who read it. Every parent should read this book before their child reads it.
Your kids need this book!

This book shows children that one person can make a positive impact on the world, and that God is with them even during the bad times of their lives. It was Squanto's faith in God that helped him forgive Europeans for kidnapping him, and it was his faith in God that made him decide to help the Pilgrims. The spiritual aspect of Squanto's life is too important to leave out when we pass this story down to our children.
The Reviews don't go far enough

The Reviews about this book don't go far enough. This isn't just about the circumstances of Squanto's life and how he came to assist the Pilgrims as they landed in Massachussetts. Rather, and more importantly, it is about the hand of God guiding one individual, who would eventually rescue a group of Christians from an uncertain fate. Had it not been for the monk who taught Squanto about Christianity and basic English, he would never have been able to help the Pilgrims.This is a great children's book for one of the most important holiday's of the year.
