2017 Sydney Taylor Notable Book for Young ReadersMel's Jewish immigrant family makes new holiday traditions after his father wins a Thanksgiving raffle and brings home an enormous live turkey home on the New York subway.Although Mel and his family have lived in America for several years, they have never celebrated Thanksgiving, just the Jewish holidays. But this year, after Papa wins a live turkey at work and brings it home on the subway, Mama invites all their relatives to their Brooklyn tenement for dinner. There's just one thing―Mel has a soft spot for the turkey!
Such a sweet story about immigrants trying to celebrate the Thanksgiving Holiday. Charming with pretty pictures. I bought 2 of them to give to each of my children/grandchildren (2 different families) when they come for dinner Thursday. I went ahead and read the book and enjoyed it myself. I look forward to more books from this author.
