《陪孩子成长系列丛书:帮助孩子学会感恩》中在单亲家庭里成长的孩子希思由于备受落魄父亲的讥讽,自尊受到践踏,心生怨怼,一直仇视父亲。但在已故祖父的家乡生活的这段日子,周围人之间的那种浓浓的感恩之情及衍生出的亲情渐渐温暖了希思的心。他敞开心扉,接纳人们关于感恩的教诲,逐渐改变了自己对生活的态度,并最终与父亲重归于好。在那里,所有接受过祖父老希思私帮助的人们也都以感恩的心回报他人,并传播感恩的种子。

译后记

Thanksgiving at the Inn will relate well to many young readers. It is recommended as a basic book for any secondary school library. It would make an excellent selection for a basic books list for school libraries. ---Linda McNeil, Chair, Tri State Young Adult Book Review Committee (PA, NJ, and DE)

The quirky characters who gather around the Thanksgiving table at the Sleeping Inn help each other learn the true meaning of gratitude. It’s easy to give thanks for this timeless, heartwarming, and inspiring tale of fathers and sons and the strangers in their lives who become our friends. ---Rev. William R. Campbell, S.J., President, Cheverus High School, Portland, ME

This is the timeless story of a father and son, their relationship, their responsibilities, and growing up. This is a book that will appeal to all audiences, not just pre-teen boys. As I was reading, I kept coming up with book club discussion questions. I could see this in a father-son book club or in one of the Boys & Girls Club reading circles. ---The Reading Tub, a non-profit organization that promotes literacy by encouraging families to read together
