A counting book with turkeys, the circus, a fairly easy rhyming scheme, and a lot of silly pictures。 Nothing super remarkable, but still fun and easy to read。 I've used it for a November storytime (not Thanksgiving specifically, but that time of year), but would also pull it out for numbers/counting or circus themes。 Better for an older storytime crowd, I think, not toddlers or younger preschoolers。 Would be a good one-on-one read too, since there are plenty of silly details in the pictures to p A counting book with turkeys, the circus, a fairly easy rhyming scheme, and a lot of silly pictures。 Nothing super remarkable, but still fun and easy to read。 I've used it for a November storytime (not Thanksgiving specifically, but that time of year), but would also pull it out for numbers/counting or circus themes。 Better for an older storytime crowd, I think, not toddlers or younger preschoolers。 Would be a good one-on-one read too, since there are plenty of silly details in the pictures to point out。 。。。more

My kids truly enjoyed this book because of the catchy-ness and the counting skill。

This book is cute but I’m not 100% sure what the point of it is。 I see turkeys and I think we are gonna get a little bit of a Thanksgiving theme。 Not here, lol。 It’s a funny counting book to say the least!

A bunch of turkeys are practicing their circus in the middle of the road, much to the chagrin of the farmer trying to drive on the road。 I'm always game for more turkey books!

A farmer is trying to drive his truck down the road but turkeys are always in his way。 This fun rhyming story is a twist on 10 little monkeys, and with a surprise ending。 Great illustrations。

A farmer encounters 10 turkeys in the road trying to set up a turkey circus。 Each endeavor he makes to try to get through the turkeys is foiled by turkey antics。 Also with each attempt to get through one turkey flies away。 Finally there are no turkeys left as the last one notices that if he doesn't get moving he'll be late。 So he steals the farmers truck, leaving the farmer stuck。 Farmer catches a ride to the circus with a car full of 。。。。pigs。Kids will love find the turkey who's getting away wi A farmer encounters 10 turkeys in the road trying to set up a turkey circus。 Each endeavor he makes to try to get through the turkeys is foiled by turkey antics。 Also with each attempt to get through one turkey flies away。 Finally there are no turkeys left as the last one notices that if he doesn't get moving he'll be late。 So he steals the farmers truck, leaving the farmer stuck。 Farmer catches a ride to the circus with a car full of 。。。。pigs。Kids will love find the turkey who's getting away with each turn of the page。 Fantastic for storytime。 。。。more

10 Turkeys is another wonderful book by author Brenda Reeves Sturgis。 We find all of her books to be engaging, and fun to read。

Abby Ueding

Cute counting book with funny illustrations。 This is a story of some wild turkeys headed to the turkey circus。 They manage to make life very difficult for the farmer on their way。 I personally love reading books with rhymes。 Would be fun to read during the fall。

10 Turkeys in the Road is a book about 10 turkeys that are circus performers practicing their show in the middle of the road。 One day, they were blocking the road when a farmer pulled in his truck。 He beeped his horn and one turkey flew away。 That left nine turkeys, so the farmer flashed his lights, and another turkey flew away。 With eight turkeys left, the farmer started to inch forward and another turkey flew away。 The book keeps this same pattern, until one turkey is left, he jumps in the far 10 Turkeys in the Road is a book about 10 turkeys that are circus performers practicing their show in the middle of the road。 One day, they were blocking the road when a farmer pulled in his truck。 He beeped his horn and one turkey flew away。 That left nine turkeys, so the farmer flashed his lights, and another turkey flew away。 With eight turkeys left, the farmer started to inch forward and another turkey flew away。 The book keeps this same pattern, until one turkey is left, he jumps in the farmers in truck, his nine turkey friends jump in, and they drive off leaving the farmer behind。 A car pulls up full with pigs and asks the farmer if he needs a ride to the circus, so he jumps in。 The book ends with a nice illustration of the 10 turkeys at the circus doing their tricks and the farmers truck is in their act。 My favorite part of this story was when the one turkey stole the farmers truck and yelled, "Come see the show!" This part just made me laugh and I appreciate the humor。 I would have this book in my classroom library for first through third graders。 I think they would appreciate this story because of the humor and most children love the circus。 I really enjoyed the illustrations in this book。 I like how the illustrator used the whole page and made their illustrations really big so you could see all the details in the illustrations。 I also liked how the illustrations really told the story。 I feel like a student that still has trouble reading could read this text because when they aren't sure of a word or words, they can look at the illustration and get a feel of what is happening in the story and still understand what is going on。 I also like how you could incorporate math in with this book, because on each page, you have to subtract one turkey from however many is left。 This would be a good exercise to use to work with subtraction and also a fun and interesting way。 I think the students would be more involved this way when there is a story behind the math。 I really enjoyed this story about the turkeys and the circus。 。。。more

Silly story with great acrylic cartoon illustrations。

Oh those turkeys! First it stars with 10 and then readers countdown as a different turkey goes off the page。 What about the farmer and where are the turkeys going?

10 Turkeys In The Road by Brenda Reeves Sturgis and Illustrated by David Slonim is a fantastic Thanksgiving book that kids love。 The counting book begins with a farmer unable to get by because there are turkeys in the road。 The delightful illustrations continue with each number until they finally steal his truck and he ends up at the turkey circus。My students loved this book and I was able to put it to a familiar tune and sing the entire thing。 They giggled at the illustrations that get sillier 10 Turkeys In The Road by Brenda Reeves Sturgis and Illustrated by David Slonim is a fantastic Thanksgiving book that kids love。 The counting book begins with a farmer unable to get by because there are turkeys in the road。 The delightful illustrations continue with each number until they finally steal his truck and he ends up at the turkey circus。My students loved this book and I was able to put it to a familiar tune and sing the entire thing。 They giggled at the illustrations that get sillier with each page that's turned。I recommend this book to kids 4-8 and it's a must have addition to holiday picture book libraries。 。。。more

Very funny。 Good book。

Cute rhyming story with fun, bright illustrations。 It's very entertaining to watch the poor farmer gets more and more frustrated with the turkeys and their antics that end up clogging up the road。 Cute rhyming story with fun, bright illustrations。 It's very entertaining to watch the poor farmer gets more and more frustrated with the turkeys and their antics that end up clogging up the road。 。。。more

This is a counting book (from 10-1) that tells the story about a farmer who is driving down the road and keeps coming across a group of circus turkeys。 He gets more frustrated with their funny antics and slowly scares one turkey away at the end of each page。 It's told in a super fun rhyme and includes adorable illustrations。 My daughter likes to point out the number in each picture。 This book always brings out quite a few giggles。 This is a counting book (from 10-1) that tells the story about a farmer who is driving down the road and keeps coming across a group of circus turkeys。 He gets more frustrated with their funny antics and slowly scares one turkey away at the end of each page。 It's told in a super fun rhyme and includes adorable illustrations。 My daughter likes to point out the number in each picture。 This book always brings out quite a few giggles。 。。。more
