PreS—A friendly turkey gets five invitations to Thanksgiving dinner. Since he doesn't want to hurt any feelings, he accepts all of them. While he has a wonderful time at each friend's house, he ends up eating a little too much. In the end, Turkey decides that next year he'll host all his friends at one party. This is a sweet story about friendship and the fun of Thanksgiving gatherings. Despite the main character being a turkey, the story is refreshingly free of jokes about the turkey being eaten. Instead, at each dinner, the turkey shares a meal that is appropriate for each farm animal (the pigs have a Thanksgiving stew, while mouse serves seeds and berries). In the end, "Turkey felt like part of the family. It was a wonderful feeling." VERDICT The bright cartoons in reds, oranges, and yellows add a warm Thanksgiving feel to a sweet story that will be a nice addition to any holiday collection.—Laura Stanfield, Campbell County Public Library, Ft. Thomas, KY
