About this title: A picture book adaptation of Alcott's story, this tells the tale of an unintentionally strange Thanksgiving dinner prepared by the Bassett children. On the day before Thanksgiving, Ma and Pa Bassett rush off to help a sick neighbor, leaving their eldest son and daughter, Eph and Tilly in charge. When the next morning arrives and their parents have still not returned home, the children take it upon themselves to prepare a meal for the holiday.

"cute. nothing very substantial. the version I read was illustrated by Holly Johnson, with some cute pencil drawings. the story was very "countrified" and I always hate references to the audience "not like we do it today", for example. but it's a good way to teach kids what life used to be like in our country, and some parts are funny. when I read that they accidentally used wormwood and catnip to flavor their stuffing, I laughed out loud!"
