Little Pookie series.
On Thanksgiving Day, Little Pookie (Spooky Pookie; Merry Christmas, Little Pookie) helps make apple and pumpkin pies and sets the table with his parents before Nemmy and Boppa arrive. After dinner, the pig family members each share what they're thankful for, with Pookie's closing "and pie" leading to a joyful dessert-eating finale. The simple rhyming text features excited asides from Pookie ("Ooo! Butter!") that fans of this series, especially young listeners, should enjoy along with Boynton's ever-pleasing signature illustrations. A board book embracing family togetherness to be "so thankful for" this season.
