Our family listens to this book each year to prepare for Thanksgiving. The story of Squanto reaches down far into the heart to make us see great things from a small beginning.

“…out of small beginnings, greater things have been produced…”

This story is one of the weaker of the series. Rabbit Ears does a great job normally, but the music was overpowering and the story is a bit weak.

That being said thus is still a good way to introduce children to great stories that are short and meaningful.

Any additional comments?

A fan of Graham Greene since "Dances With Wolves", who leaves behind his quirky humor in this story, and gives a feeling reading, I also am thankful to the author, Mr. Metaxes, who did such a nice job telling what it was like to be an Indian/First People before the Pilgrims landed, and how Squanto, after being unwillingly captured, taken to Spain and finally returned, made an extraordinary coincidence by meeting up with the first Pilgrims, speaking English. The dinner
sounded authentic, and delicious. Would I so love to include lobster and mussels at this historical dinner! But, at least I can add succotash, another dish that ran true for the time because Indians
did grow the "THree Sisters": corn, beans and squash.

I took off just one star for the music, which at times was irritating and invasive, not really adding to
or enhancing the mood.

This is a family story,worthwhile for both children and adults.

AT LAST! THE OTHER SIDE OF THANKSGIVING STORY.

This is the first Rabbit Ears story that we cannot give five stars. The background music was too loud and the narrator was too soft-spoken. Also, only the last few minutes of the story were dedicated to the First Thanksgiving. We would have preferred to hear more about that.

Difficult to understand narrator

Not a fan of music but liked the story. We may make it a new tradition.

Thankful

I, at first, thought that the actor, Graham Greene, was the same as the author Graham Greene... After a bit of researching, they are, or rather were, two separate people. The author passed away in 1991. My preference is the Canadian First Nations Actor... and I could listen and/or watch that Graham Greene forever!!! As the title of this review suggests, this was a very enjoyable listening experience. I just wish it had been much longer!!!

Very Enjoyable Listening

We’ve been reading Eric Metaxas’s book for years. This was a slightly different version but very good too. The performance was wonderful, along with the music.

Metaxes knows how to write and he tells this story in a fun easy way. Its 23 minutes you will not regret.

My primary issue with this book is about the audio mix. The narrator’s voice is low in pitch, and I had to struggle to understand the words because the accompanying music was too loud. The difference in average pitch between the voice and music exacerbated this issue. My 5-year-old gave similar (though less precise) feedback. I used several different speakers, and on some I could barely parse the story.

The story is otherwise fine; keep in mind age appropriateness and always have discussions with your child(ren) about historical context, e.g. what is different and what is the same 350 years later (in US and in other parts of the world), etc.

Audio mix (narration over music) makes comprehension difficult
