If the farmer doesn’t fall for his tricks, there’s only one think left to do . . . run, Turkey, run!Kirkus ReviewsTurkey is having a terrible day. And what other kind of day would he have on the eve of Thanksgiving? He certainly won't be giving thanks if the farmer catches him. Run, Turkey, Run! Turkey spies the pigpen and hides in the mud. Maybe the farmer will think Turkey's a pig. Does he? No! Run, Turkey, Run! / Muckity-muck, here comes the farmer! Poor Turkey tries to be a duck and then a horse, but the farmer knows his animals too well. Turkey finally finds safety in the forest . . . until the family comes searching for a Christmas tree. Run, Turkey, Run! Mayr's onomatopoeic turkey escapes are a nice pair with Rader's energetic watercolors. Listeners will laugh at Turkey in a diving mask and giggle at the clankity-crunchity fun. Since the farmer's children look perfectly happy with a grilled-cheese Thanksgiving, here is a fine companion to Dav Pilkey's 'Twas the Night before Thanksgiving (1990). Sure to be a participatory storytime favorite. (Picture book. 3-7) | Bloomsbury USA Childrens |

| 9780375824302 | Sergei Prokofiev's Peter And The Wolf: With A Fully-Orchestrated And Narrated CD | Sergei Prokofiev | THERE IS NO better way to introduce children to classical music than with Prokofiev’s musical fairy tale of the little boy (played by all the strings of the orchestra) who, with the help of a bird (played by the flute), outsmarted the big, bad wolf (played by the French horns). And now with this book and CD package, children can look and listen all at the same time. A new retelling by Janet Schulman follows the basic story, but with a kinder ending for both the big bad wolf and the argumentative duck. Peter Malone’s paintings have the luminous quality of old Russian masters. The CD, with music performed by the Cincinnati Pops and word-for-word narration by Peter A. Thomas, was made exclusively for this book and CD package. | Knopf Books for Young Readers |
