Produktbeschreibung

This is a delightful true story of one baby turkey poult and his journey to adulthood. Heritage turkeys are endangered livestock. These varieties of turkeys are wonderful parents. Mothers often share raising all the babies together. Even the dads will nurture the young poults by keeping them safe and warm. They love people and make all their human visitors laugh with their antics. Christina has been a professional artist for 30 years and lovingly illustrated the book with beautiful watercolors of these remarkable birds.
