Setting the Turkeys Free by W. Nikola Lisa, illustrated by Ken Wilson-Max
Setting the Turkeys Free is a very cute and creative book. It is the story of a boy who is finger painting and begins to make turkeys with the outline of his hand. Yes, just like kids have been doing in preschool for years! He gives each turkey special decorations and places all the turkeys into a pen made out of popsicle sticks.
Soon a fox enters the story and the boy has to protect the turkeys with changes to his drawing. In a way it sort of reminds me of The Little Prince, in the way that drawings come to life.
This is a fantastic book for the upcoming turkey making season. Teachers will love reading it, and students will love hearing it. It is a great book for teach problem solving, creativity, and imagination to young children. Ken Wilson-Max's bright illustrations mixed with finger painting are a joy to look at and should provide inspiration to lots of young artists.
