We love the “I can Read!” series in our home… It’s Thanksgiving!  is a fun book perfect for preschool students to listen and enjoy.  Amazon says:    It’s time for turkey! The parade is about to start. The pumpkin pie is in the oven. The whole family is gathered around the table. And everybody wants to pull the wishbone!

Turkey is in trouble. Bad trouble. The kind of trouble where it’s almost Thanksgiving . . . and you’re the main  course. But Turkey has an idea–what if he doesn’t look like a turkey? What if he looks like another animal instead?  After many hilarious attempts, Turkey comes up with the perfect disguise to make this Thanksgiving the best ever!  We have a fun activity to go along with this book on TpT!

My children love all of the Olivia books. She is on goofy pig with quite the imagination! Olivia Talks Turkey is no different!  Preschoolers will love this book.  Amazon writes, Olivia’s fine turkey talk brings a pet turkey into her life… but Mom and Dad won’t let her keep it. Luckily for the turkey, Olivia knows someone who’s also a great turkey talker and who has wanted a pet turkey her whole life… Mrs. Hoggenmuller!
