Turkey, Turkey

I wrote and illustrated the following story in November 2012 to introduce Thanksgiving food vocabulary to a special needs preschool class I was working with at the time. Turkey, Turkey Turkey, Turkey Where are you? I need you in my turkey stew... Is that you ? Behind the gate? No...sweet potatoes on a plate. Is that you, Turkey? In that hole? No...mashed potatoes in a bowl. Is that you, Turkey?  Way up high? No...a piece of pumpkin pie. In the wagon?  Is that you? No...it's stuffing (gravy, too). Turkey, well...  You must be lost... But I just found... Cranberry sauce! My plate is FULL of food to eat! I don't need any turkey meat! I just ate so  much good stuff! I don't need more--I've had enough! Still no turkey. Not a peep. Oh well. I'm full. I'm going to sleep. (BUT WAIT...) THE END. HAPPY THANKSGIVING! ...
