«A Turkey for Thanksgiving» is an illustrated children's story by Eve Bunting, published by Clarion Books in paperback (32 pages, in English).
Mr. and Mrs. Moose invite their animal friends to Thanksgiving dinner, but the turkey doesn't show up. The couple searches for him, and the turkey trembles with fear because he thinks he'll end up on the plate; he doesn't know his hosts want him at the table, not on the menu. A story about friendship and the true meaning of the holiday, with a happy ending.
The illustrations are by Diane de Groat. The work was originally published in 1991; this edition is from September 1995.
Recommended for children aged 4 to 7; suitable for reading aloud with family and for storytime.
