Turk and Runt : a Thanksgiving comedy / story by Lisa Wheeler ; pictures by Frank Ansley.
Runt the turkey is much smaller than his brother, but his intelligence keeps his family from becoming Thanksgiving Day dinner. Turk's parents are proud of him, the biggest, strongest, most graceful bird at Wishbone Farm. "He's a dancer," says his mother. "He's an athlete," says his father. "He's a goner," says his little brother, Runt. But no one ever listens to Runt -- even after people with seasonal plans and roasting pans begin showing up at Wishbone Farm, or even after the juiciest turkeys are chosen, one by one. "Chosen for what?" Turk asks. No one wants to hear Runt's answer. But you will laugh at what he has to do to get his family's attention. They are, after all, turkeys.
