Thanksgiving is coming up!  Do you spend time with family and friends?  I do.  I’m going to tell you a Thanksgiving story about a turkey family!

There once was a turkey with two sisters who can be annoying.  So she decided she was going to take a walk.  She passed a farm house, five houses and one angry dog.  She walked one more mile then she saw a restaurant and she went in. There were people eating lots of food.  The turkey was so hungry she went to the back of the restaurant where she saw a man.  He was cutting turkeys for Thanksgiving dinner and went to grab her.  But she was so smart and launched herself out the window and ran away.  Well now at home the turkeys mom was wondering where she was so she sent the next turkey.  This turkey was even smarter.   So she left and went by a farm house, five houses and one angry dog and came to the restaurant.  Then she realized that she was hungry and crept to the kitchen and there was the man still cutting up turkeys.  She thought I’d better get out of here!  She tucked herself into a ball and rolled right out the door.  Mom was getting worried and sent the oldest out to find her sisters. So she left and went by a farm house, five houses and one angry dog and came to the restaurant.  Right away she saw what was happening. She launched herself in the air and landed on his head!  He screamed so loud that all the waiters came in to see what was wrong. When they saw the turkey sitting on his head, they started to laugh and laugh. They laughed so hard that the chef also started to laugh. One waiter said, “looks like you have a new friend.” The chef said, “well I think this is one turkey I’m not going to eat this year.” And with that, the turkey hopped down and waddled out the door.  The mom and her three turkeys named Gobbles, Strut and Peck lived happily ever after.
