In 'Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving,' the Bassett family is thrown into a delightful flurry of activity when they are left to manage Thanksgiving preparations on their own.

From thrilling sledding adventures and encounters with mischievous bears to storytelling sessions around the fire and wrestling with plum puddings, the children discover the true meaning of Thanksgiving through their shared experiences and the bonds of family.
