Book overview

From Dav Pilkey, creator of the #1 bestselling Dog Man series, comes a Thanksgving read-aloud feast with a funny holiday twist packed with humor, heart, and plenty of laughs for readers of all ages to gobble up!

 

'Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving is a read-aloud classic written in the rhythmic style of Clement Clarke Moore's classic poem 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, with a clever and funny holiday twist. The signature Pilkey style, with read-aloud rhythmic text paired with bold, vibrant, hilarious illustrations, perfectly captures the heartwarming humor of the holiday spirit.

On the day before Thanksgiving, a group of children visit a turkey farm and meet Farmer Mack Nuggett and his coop of cockerels: Ollie, Stanley, Larry, Moe, Wally, Beaver, Shemp, and Groucho. When the kids realize the turkeys are destined to become dinner, they sneak the birds home under their clothes to save them, reminding people and poultry alike that there is much to be thankful for.
