You Name It, Gram Made It! - Hardcover

by Carylee Carrington (Author)

In "You Name It, Grammy Made It: A Thanksgiving Story of Family and Love," young Trey experiences the warmth, joy, and delicious traditions of Thanksgiving with his family. On Thanksgiving morning, Trey wakes up to the comforting sounds of his parents bustling in the kitchen and his dad making his famous pancakes, a recipe passed down from Trey's great-grandmother. As the family sets off on a three-hour drive to Gram's house, Trey wonders what makes this family gathering so special. Upon arriving, he is welcomed by the lively chatter of relatives and the mouthwatering smells of a feast prepared with love by Gram and the other women in the family. As Trey explores the long dining table laden with turkey, ham, greens, and more, he begins to understand the true meaning of soul food and family tradition.

As the day unfolds, Trey learns that Gram's cooking isn't just for the family-it's also shared with those who can't be with their loved ones for Thanksgiving. This act of generosity leaves a deep impression on Trey, and he realizes that Thanksgiving is about more than just the food. It's a time to be thankful, to share, and to come together as a family. The day ends on a high note with the entire family singing and dancing to Gram's Thanksgiving song, a joyful celebration of their love, traditions, and the blessings they share.
