Keepunumuk: Weeâchumun's Thanksgiving Story

Keepunumuk: Weeâchumun's Thanksgiving StoryWritten and illustrated by four Indigenous creators, this beautiful picture book honors both the history and tradition that surrounds the story of the first Thanksgiving. The Thanksgiving story that most Americans know celebrates the Pilgrims.
