Day After Thanksgiving
built 613 days ago
In 'Twas the Day After Thanksgiving: A Lift-the-Flap Story by Mavis Smith, a very grateful mouse, tucked behind a flap on each spread, upends the Clement C. Moore rhyme. To the opening words, Smith adds, "and all through the house, a family ate leftovers"; readers lift the flap to close the refrigerator door, "Yum, yum! said a mouse," shown poised to pounce from a countertop. Ages 3-6.

The display kickoff historically begins the day after Thanksgiving. To meet that date this year, the assembly and testing of the display has already begun. A small group of volunteer Duke Energy employees and retirees support the display, spending hundreds of hours throughout the year handcrafting replacement parts and adding to the collection of miniature buildings and structures. These volunteers ... keep the display running through the holidays until the end of December.
