A hilarious and wholly original Thanksgiving book, destined to become a holiday classic!
Run, run, run as fast as you can. You won't catch me for your roasting pan!
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 . . .
Written in witty, bouncing rhyme by Alayne Kay Christian and brought to life with lush, autumnal art by Neha Rawat, Turkey on the Run! is bound to become a classic that young readers will beg to read again and again.
Alayne Kay Christian is an award-winning author, a former acquisitions editor, and a writing teacher. Her other books include An Old Man and His Penguin: How Dindim Made João Pereira de Souza an Honorary Penguin and The Weed That Woke Christmas: The Mostly True Story of the Toledo Christmas Weed.
