The only thing that kept this book from getting 5 stars from me (and I'm picky, probably unreasonably so) was this line:

feel the crisp air, hear the crunch of fallen leaves and smell the aromas of pumpkin pie and hot cider. I loved that the author repeatedly reinforces the idea of giving thanks to God by ending portions of her book long poem with “It is good to give thanks to the Lord”.

I especially liked the expressions on the people’s faces as they interacted with each other.All in all Give Thanks to The Lord is perfect for Thanksgiving or anytime you want to reinforce giving thanks to God.
