A perfect read-aloud.<em>--School Library Journal</em></p><br><br><p>With rhythm and rhyme reminiscent of The House that Jack Built but without the cumulative lines, the text radiates warmth like a kitchen stove...The turkey incident will have children in stitches, and its handling within the story will reassure them of what's really important on this day.
