Here, Hoskins shares memories of crisp autumn days on an Arkansas farm populated by a loving family and farm animals. Thanks to Hoskins vivid memories, young readers will surely imagine waking up on Thanksgiving morning on the rural farm, feeling the warmth of the potbellied stove, and hearing the unique sounds from the barn that can only be heard on a farm.</p> <p>Finally, Hoskins' story will surely entice the most reticent of readers as they imagine the tastes, the textures, the smells of the sweet potato pie, turkey and dressing, ham and homemade rolls! A most delightful potpourri of life on the farm on Thanksgiving Day</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Christmas Night on the Farm by Maria Hoskins The reader can almost feel the cold air and the kiss of snowflakes on their face as you open the pages of Hoskins' book. The story is told in the rhyming style of The Night Before Christmas and brings readers to the farm as family begin to gather for the holiday. All the children are settling down for the night when the train whistle awakens one young girl. She peers out the window as angels from on high sing of the birth of Baby Jesus, which is celebrated each year on the little farm. Crymes' illustrations are perfectly paired with the story and bring the African-American family to life with rich lush color. This is a perfect story to share with young children and to lead to a discussion of family and holiday traditions celebrated each year.
