Turkeys around Squawk Valley have gotten too smart to just jump into pots anymore for Thanksgiving so the townsfolk come up with a plan to lure one in for their Thanksgiving feast. Unfortunately, the turkey turns out to be smarter than the townsfolk. This was a cute story that both me and the kids enjoyed.
Mrs. Gumm finds a turkey egg and raises the turkey with intentions on eating it for Thanksgiving dinner, but things do not go according to plan. Let’s just say Mrs. Gumm has a kind heart! 😉
