WATTLE you hear in the library?

Here is the book most classes are listening to this week:

In celebration of our upcoming holiday next week, this story about a turkey in disguise is the perfect tale. The author, Mary Jane Auch is having a birthday this month and is featured on our Birthday Club table in the library. Come and see what other books she has written. Mary Jane is very fond of birds, and most of her books feature poultry as the main characters. Try Poultrygeist, Chickerella, or Peeping Beauty. The text is fill with "eggciting" jokes and chicken humor.
Can you leave an "eggcelent" chicken joke?
