Episode 310 (Thanksgiving Special)

Kino and Natasha are gathered with Patrick Swayze and some students in a classroom where they are talking about Thanksgiving and being thankful. Patrick reads a story about children who eat jelly and toast for Thanksgiving dinner to save the lives of the turkeys and asks the children what they could share for Thanksgiving. Natasha and Kino come up with a plan to share books with sick children at the hospital.

Back at the Storyplace, they are collecting books when Héctor Elizondo offers to read another Thanksgiving book, about a family who wants to come to America. Afterward, Kino and Natasha make a trip to the hospital to deliver the books to the children. Joanie Bartels comes along to sing "Over the Woods and Through the Woods", while Natasha turns the pages.
