And Families Gather All Round Emily Alston

The perfect Thanksgiving read-aloud, sing-along book. From illustrator Emily Alston comes a bright and fun Thanksgiving-themed interpretation of the beloved kids' song "And the green grass grows all around".

Oh the house in the town,

And the town in the state,

And families gather around and around,

And families gather all around.

A beautifully illustrated celebration in verse of all that we love about Thanksgiving - family gatherings, dinners, and turkey. This cumulative poem is best read aloud. Kids will recognize the pattern of the poem immediately, and will be singing along in no time to the tune of "And the green grass grows all around".
