The 3 Little Pigs are at it again! While getting ready to build their very own new houses, they are also getting ready for a big party!

Find out what happens in this exciting story!
This is a modern-day story told from the wolf's perspective who tries to borrow a cup of sugar from three pigs. He tries to convince them he's not a pig eater because he's not the same wolf they had read about in other books. It wasn't until he smelled the aroma of Thanksgiving cooking coming from Oink's house that he realized he was a wolf who's possibly capable of eating pigs. An old friend who lives in the forest reserves knew him when he was a little feller was his last hope to borrow a cup of sugar. On Thanksgiving Day, he goes to the old man's house and learns there is a surprise waiting for him when he arrives.
2014 James Beard Foundation Book Award, Reference and Scholarship Honor Book for Nonfiction, Black Caucus of the American Library Association In this insightful and eclectic history, Adrian Miller delves into the influences, ingredients, and innovations that make up the soul food tradition. Focusing each chapter on the culinary and social history of one dish--such as fried chicken, chitlins, yams, greens, and "red drinks--Miller uncovers how it got on the soul food plate and what it means for African American culture and identity. Miller argues that the story is more complex and surprising than commonly thought. Four centuries in the making, and fusing European, Native American, and West African cuisines, soul food--in all its fried, pork-infused, and sugary glory--is but one aspect of African American culinary heritage. Miller discusses how soul food has become incorporated into American culture and explores its connections to identity politics, bad health raps, and healthier alternatives. This refreshing look at one of America's most celebrated, mythologized, and maligned cuisines is enriched by spirited sidebars, photographs, and twenty-two recipes.
"M.F.K Fisher’s latest excursion into the art or science of gastronomy is more an anthology of the finest writing on the subject than strictly a text of her own composition . . . A royal feast, indeed!" —The New York Times Betty Fussell—winner of the James Beard Foundation’s journalism award, and whose essays on food, travel, and the arts have appeared in The New York Times, The New Yorker, Saveur, and Vogue—is the perfect writer to introduce M.F.K Fisher’s Here Let Us Feast, first published in 1946. The author of Eat, Live, Love, Die has penned a brilliant introduction to this fabulous anthology of gastronomic writing, selected and with commentary from the inimitable M.F.K. Fisher. The celebrated author of such books as The Art of Eating, The Cooking of Provincial France, and With Bold Knife and Fork, Fisher knows how to prepare a feast of reading as no other. Excerpting descriptions of bountiful meals from classic works of British and American literature, Fisher weaves them into a profound discussion of feasting. She also traces gluttony through the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, and claims that the story of a nation's life is charted by its gastronomy. M.F.K. Fisher has arranged everything perfectly, and the result is a succession of unforgettable courses that will entice the most reluctant epicure.

Young Percy Isaac Gifford provides a list of ten rules for getting the most out of Thanksgiving Day, especially how best to enjoy the buffet.
When I retired rich at age 55, I should have been more afraid. I was no longer a highly paid CEO in corporate America, but I had no apprehension about climbing down. I had plenty of money, literally millions of dollars, and figured I could easily handle my transition into an exciting, fun-filled retirement. Las Vegas was calling, and Palm Springs beckoned. Then, without warning, I was pounded with a series of lethal storms that made my remarkable ascent in the business world look easy. After college, I had been unstoppable, rapidly climbing up, a businessman riding high on a fabulous, serendipitous winning streak. My life was also the proverbial story of rags to riches. I had to learn how to climb out of the box of poverty and low expectations into which I was born. In my youth, I learned lessons that taught me how to cope, survive, and win in spite of vast, adversarial forces I saw and felt but never fully comprehended. When destructive personal losses swept through my post-retirement life, the old lessons that had taken me to the top in business were useless. I decided to revisit my entire life. I desperately needed to find the lessons I must have missed along the way. It was a matter of life and death. This memoir is the record of that amazing search.
Two families—one that is perfect and one that is far from it—celebrate Thanksgiving in their own loving ways.
