Turkey Day

Turkey Day (School Reader Level 1) Grace Maccarone. Illustrated by John Manders. 2010. Scholastic. 32 pages.

Wake up, turkeys! Don't be slow.
It is time to go, go, go!
Turkeys go from near and far.
They go by bike. They go by car.

Where are all these turkeys going? Perhaps to a Thanksgiving feast and celebration all their own?! (After the meal, readers even see the turkeys dancing. There's one with a fiddle. And yes, he's on the straw!) This one is a simple book; A fun, easy story designed to be read by the earliest of readers. I liked the rhyming. I liked the silliness.
