INTERESTING AND INFORMATIVE

I bought this book for my niece and nephew about 2 years ago and upon reading it myself, I found it to be educational, interesting, and informative. I learned a lot myself about these great birds. My sister even liked it a lot, and the kids loved the illustrations. I even thought that they were great. This would be a great book for homeschooling or for teachers to bring to class around THANKSGIVING so that kids could learn about turkeys and its a great book for animal lovers too. I'm glad that I bought it here and its well worth the money and the time. A Great book and a must read.

All About What Mommy Doesn't Hate

Jim Arnosky's "All About" series deserves five stars for meeting my stringent Mommy criteria: it holds my children's interest, it teaches me something I didn't know, I can get through reading it aloud in 10 minutes even if my kids keep asking me about the illustrations, and - most importantly - it doesn't annoy me when I have to read it over and over again. I give him four stars because he misuses commas, and I have strong feelings about punctuation. All About Turkeys does justice to a noble bird, and thanks to Jim Arnosky I've learned what wattles are. Any children's author who teaches me a new word is a friend of mine.

Include This Book for Fall/ Thanksgiving Units

A really good book about turkeys and unlike any other. I really enjoyed it and learned some things myself!
