Preston is a charming children's play written in the early 20th century. This one-act play is designed for young performers and audiences, focusing on the themes of Thanksgiving and the rich history surrounding it. The content highlights the interaction between Pilgrims, Native Americans, and traditional Thanksgiving elements such as pumpkins and turkeys, presenting a lighthearted and educational narrative. The play centers around a young boy named Jack who, after indulging in a large Thanksgiving meal, falls asleep and dreams about various characters associated with the Thanksgiving celebration. Through his dream, he meets Pilgrim Maids who recount their struggles and relationships with Native Americans, as well as whimsical pumpkins and turkeys who lament their fates. Goblins add a comical twist, warning Jack against being greedy, which ultimately leads him to wake up and reflect on his feast. The final message encourages children to appreciate their meals without overindulgence while capturing the spirit of Thanksgiving in a playful manner.
