Summary: I have a soft spot for cream puff addicted cows . . .
Review: I love Minnie and Moo. Who could resist a cream puff addicted cow? Not me. Anyway, like the other books in the "Minnie and Moo" universe this is another story filled with silly fun and is quirkily different from most Thanksgiving stories. It's Thanksgiving and bovines Minnie and Moo are relaxing beneath a tree sipping away on hot cocoa and nibbling on cream puffs when thirty-six frantic turkeys beg need of their help. It's Thanksgiving and Mrs. Farmer's cousins are about for a visit. The turkeys, being turkeys, fear for their lives! Minnie and Moo hide the tribe of turkeys in the tree and settle in to finish their snack when they're accosted by a rather rude rooster and his flock of chickens who demand help. They're next in line in the food chain, you see. Before you know it Minnie and Moo have quite the zoo hidden within the tree. Happy chaos ensues as the farmer and his family decide to picnic beneath the tree. Light, fluffy and filled with laughs this a good pick if your brain is a little drained and the kids are stressed.

Summary: A breakthrough for vegetarians! :)
Review: My grandchidren (4 & 5) and I are Minnie and Moo addicts. We laugh a lot when we read these books together. This Thanksgiving story is no disappointment. The idea of all these animals in the "old oak tree" is funny enough. Then, when the Farmers bring their guests to the tree for a Thanksgiving picnic we had tears in our eyes from laughing.
These books are wonderful read alouds as well as great beginning reader stories. You will want more after reading this book. It is tied with "Night of the Living Bed" in our house.

Summary: Minnie and Moo and the Thanksgiving Tree
Review: This humourous and clever Thanksgiving tale leaves you chuckling about another cow mishap!! My preschool and early elementary children are valiant followers of Minnie and Moo. So when almost all the animals on the farm end up in a most unpredictable place, the kids read fast to the finish line to see how the cows will resolve the mess they cook up. It's delightful and does the trick to entrance my kids to read a good story more than once.
