Book Review: The Perfect Thanksgiving Book For Veggie Kids...
Summary: 5 Stars
As a mother of 2 with a fully vegetarian family it can be quite a task to find children's books that fall in line as being appropriate given our views/beliefs. This book was a little Thanksgiving godsend! It manages to convey a great message of compassion and strength from the children in it who upon hearing of the turkeys fates panic and eventually sneak the turkeys out of the farm and take them home as guests for vegetarian Thanksgiving dinners. The illustrations are cute and the text is fun, funny and has a good rhyme scheme. It doesn't manage to fully hold my two year old's attention (though little does anyway) but he'll enjoy it later and my seven month old likes looking at the pictures and trying to eat the pages.
