When I made my list of my favorite children's books a month or so ago, I forgot about this one.... 'Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving by Dav Pilkey. Maybe I forgot because it wasn't on the shelf - it was in the Thanksgiving decoration box, which I unearthed the other day. But this is one of my all-time favorites, perhaps my ultimate favorite. Love, love, love the storyline. And yes, it's a little pro-vegetarian. But the author insists that he didn't write it for that reason - he said: To me, it's just a silly story about love and friendship. If this book has any 'message', it is perhaps that following your heart is often more important than following the rules."
