“Rethinking Thanksgiving: History, Holidays, and Gratitude” is a virtual author visit with Kate Messner and Traci Sorell, whose books explore history and culture. It’s aimed at readers in grades 3-7 and invites students to take a critical look at the “First Thanksgiving” myth and consider multiple views on gratitude. The virtual author visit video runs about 45 minutes and will be available throughout the month of November.
Cost: Because so many educators have reached out to request this video and we know it’s a tough time for budgets, we’re making this virtual author visit available to everyone. If you can, please pay it forward by making a donation of any size to the We Need Diverse Books Native Fund or the Highlights Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship fund.
Be sure to check out Kate and Traci’s books featured in this visit – HISTORY SMASHERS: THE MAYFLOWER and OTSALIHELIGA: WE ARE GRATEFUL!
