Turklet, Squeaky, and the Seven Chicken Chicks by Effie Joe Stock

“It’s a very heartwarming story.”

Review by Rayleigh Setser

Turklet the turkey has always wanted a family of her own, but when she tries to hatch a nest of eggs, she is faced with many unforeseen difficulties including language barriers, adoption, racism, and prejudice against mixed/unconventional families. But with the help of Nic, the farm girl who raised her, and her dear friend Squeaky the duck, Turklet will discover that all of life’s difficulties are not so daunting when dealt with patience and love.

Genre: Childrens

Pages: 48

This is a charming story of love and overcoming the challenges of individuality within family circles. There's a special emphasis on the language barriers and culture differences encountered in mixed families that result from adoption from other countries. It's a very heartwarming story and I had fun reading it! Plus, the illustrations are so cute!

It is a longer read than the average kid's book, so I'd recommend it to ages 4-6 just because the attention span of my younger nieces wasn't there. But it's a fun one to read aloud!
