Illustrated by
Amanda Pike.
After winning the Thanksgiving raffle, German immigrant Papa brings a live turkey home to Brooklyn (via subway). Indik (Yiddish for turkey) becomes something of a pet to the little-boy narrator, so when it's time for butchering, he's relieved: Indik's "too old! He'll be too tough to eat!" Amusing period illustrations enliven the silly predicament, based on a true story.
