Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

P.K. Hallinan began writing children's books 40 years ago when his wife asked him to make a book for their two young sons as a Christmas gift. He did, and the feedback he got from friends and neighbors inspired him to write more books. Since then, P.K. has written and illustrated nearly 100 children's books and has sold more than 9,000,000 copies worldwide.

P.K. was born in Los Angeles in 1944 and spent his youth primarily in Bethesda, Maryland and in the San Fernando Valley. Although P.K. never studied art, his disappointment with the work of the artist assigned to illustrate his first book motivated him to learn to draw. He has been illustrating his own books ever since.

"If I did any one thing right," says P.K., "I decided very early on to write books that help children and parents alike have better and happier lives. That decision has kept many of my books in-print for more than 25 years, because the values I teach are timeless."

His newest book, "A LIFE THAT MATTERS: Five Steps to Making a Difference", is his first book for adults. In it he describes five simple ways to add significance to virtually any career.

P.K. is also an ordained minister. He lives with his wife, Jeanne, and his boxer, Betty, in the mountains above Ashland and also at the beach, in Brookings, Oregon.

5.0 out of 5 stars A delightful story

I purchased this because my Fragile X adult son was so taken with it when read to him at his daily program. He asked me to order it. That was fine with me. But I must have read the price wrong because when I was billed I was surprised at the great cost for a used book. However he is happy with it and that is worth what I paid.

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE PK Hallinan!

PK Hallinan is the best author of children's books I have come across yet. His story lines and rhymes are just adorable. My 20-month-old has been "reading" his books since she was born and they are her favorites! And her parents' favorites also. My favorite part of this book says, "...we're too crammed to expand, but then we sigh and make room for pie." Too funny!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not all kids can relate
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2012

I needed Thanksgiving stories to share at a story hour and I was disappointed with this one. The story is an account of what the characters' Thanksgiving day is like. They start off with the cold weather (which my kids can't relate to because it's not particularly cold where we live), then talk about the cooking, then mention the Pilgrims and Indians (without explaining who they are or why someone would want to think about them on Thanksgiving), then they watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade, then play football (they spend 5 pages doing this and one page with the Pilgrims), and last, the family arrives and they have dinner. There was just a lot in this story that my kids couldn't relate to.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Wholesome Book
Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2000
This book along with many other P.K. Hallinan books are good, wholesome books to enjoy with your children. The story not only includes the usual "goodies" that children are accustomed to during holidays, but it also includes the "true meaning" of holidays. Hallinan lets us enjoy the extras of Thanksgiving but reminds us to be thankful for the little things too. This book is a "must read".
