Off the top of my head, I like An Old Fashioned Thanksgiving by Louisa May Alcott. It's a short story that can be found on Google Books. The Hallmark Channel has a movie by the same name but it is a bit different from the book.

Not really a Thanksgiving book, but I remember reading Matthew and the Midnight Turkeys at Thanksgiving.
