A Turkey for Thanksgiving

This is a very cute story with adorable illustrations. It became one of our favorite books for Thanksgiving this year.

It has a very nice surprise ending that kids love!

Growing up I LOVED this book along with all things fall!Now that I'm expecting a thanksgiving baby it was the perfect excuse to add this book to our library! We currently have 2 under 5 & they loved the subversion in the story as much as I did!10/10 worth the addition to the family library

The media could not be loaded. I get my daughter, a book for every holiday, read it to her and then write her a note about what we did that holiday and this book was perfect for Thanksgiving! It was adorable and funny she loved it!

My day job, as a teacher requires me to read many books to my students. This book has been a favorite of mine for years. Because of the comedy in the story, older (4-6th) grade student can enjoy it as well as primary students. I like to use this book to teach prediction and have the student make a prediction as to whether or not Mr, Moose and his "hunting party" will catch Turkey or not. Students enjoy writing their prediction before we finish the book. The ending has a cute twist everyone can enjoy. This is a great book to read the day before Fall Break, as it is light hearted and fun.

A few years ago, when I read this story to a class of second graders as a substitute teacher, my perception of Thanksgiving dinner was changed once for all. I began celebrating Thanksgiving a la "Mrs. Moose," because she is classy, evolved and compassionate-traits we need to yet develop toward animal kind. I ordered ten of this book and shared it with people (grown ups!) whom I admire. Oh, I love the illustrations too! They gave me ideas of how I want the illustrations look like in my own picture book story I've written about animal freedom : )

This is a cute story. Perfect for the little ones. Second purchase for my grandson

I am a former children librarian and this was my favorite thanksgiving book read out loud. So when I wanted to buy a Thanksgiving book for my granddaughter it had to be a this

Such a cute story to share with your vegetarian child (or even your omnivorous child!).

I really liked the pictures and the story is cute. Something nice to work with my class for Thanksgiving..interesting to follow the story without reading the text.

My grade twos love this story!
