      PreS-KBug-eyed pilgrim ants board a ship to a new land. After a stormy ride, they arrive and give thanks. Superimposed on the full-page, color illustrations are short rhyming sentences in dialogue, such as 'Peek out, said Scout. 'Oh no! said Joe. This sentence structure gets old quickly, and much inferring is required to understand the Thanksgiving theme behind the limited text. Most kids will soon get bored with this book. Bethany Robertss "Thanksgiving Mice!" (Clarion, 2001) has a better story."Sandra Welzenbach, Villarreal Elementary School, San Antonio, TX"

      A class of ant children reenacts the story of the Pilgrims' voyage, their arrival in America, and their first interactions with the native people (well, ants). Beginning readers will be tickled by the rhyming text ("Big ship," said Chip. "With snacks," said Max) and silly premise. The accompanying illustrations are surprisingly rich, and they capture the fun without being too cartoonish.
