What's Thanksgiving without turkey? Spare the Turkey is a realistic fiction book in which Darryl and his mother join friends for a Thanksgiving meal. He is very skeptical because the family is vegetarian and will not be serving turkey. Upset, he assumes he and his mother will leave hungry and have to go out to eat after dinner. Find out what happens when Darryl sits down to a table filled with vegetarian dishes. Illustrations support the text.
