It’s the most wonderful time of the year: there’s frozen white dust on the ground, the Human Lady has decorated her nest with shiny things, and the scent of scrumptious goodness is wafting from the kitchen . . .
But then Tinkles the Canary comes with unprecedented news. That delicious smell is not just deliciousness with a sprinkling of yumminess . . . it’s the smell of TURKEY. Being cooked!
Horrors!
Can Dave and Skipper save a bird that’s delivered in a plastic wrapper? Probably not. But what if they can work out a way to put nut roast on the menu instead?
Brought to life with funny black and white illustrations throughout. Perfect for enticing those who are new to reading!
