Kids don't even know they're learning history

I have been perusing children's books for historical events and people. This is a nice introduction to the Mayflower and the history of Thanksgiving. It gives enough detail that very young children will actually learn some history, yet it is short and to the point to keep their interest. The only fault is that I could not get a hardcover edition. I like this one better than The Pilgrims' First Thanksgiving by Ann McGovern.
