Ten Hungry Turkeys

9781455622351

$16.99

Dear Turkeys, We’re planning a big lunch on Thursday. Please come early. It wouldn’t be any fun without you. Love, Mr. and Mrs. Chris P. Byrd Of course the hungry birds accept politely! Ten turkeys stuffed with personality set off for the gathering. With each step closer, questions arise—are they to be guests at the table—or on it? Through a repetitive counting chorus, they drop out one by one as they each get a hunch about lunch. Didn’t they just see a carved pumpkin last month? Could this month be Thanksgiving? As half of the birds disappear, the remaining number wonder if lunch might be a trap. Will there be foul play? Will any of the turkeys make it to lunch? Silly puns, comic illustrations, and singsong rhymes combine in this counting story with a happy ending.
