Turkey on the Run!


Turkey on the Run!
by Alayne Kay Christian (Author) and Neha Rawat (Illustrator)
@ Amazon | Bookshop

Booktalk: When a turkey is caught in a trap on Thanksgiving morning, he knows it can only mean one thing: a one-way trip to the dinner table. But this particular turkey won’t give up without a fight, so he takes to the streets in a daring escape! Tailed by a small group of pursuers, he’s determined to make it out of Thanksgiving Day without catching sight of a turkey baster.

But it’s possible that not is all that it seems. Maybe the group chasing him do not want to enjoy him as part of their Thanksgiving meal; maybe they have something else in mind instead . . .

Snippet:

The author, Alayne Kay Christian, is one of my former students.
