(1) K-3 Cole's blithe illustrations set this entertaining story in nineteenth-century New York. A tiny flat is no place for a live turkey, but Pa brings one home to fatten up for Christmas. It proves to be a noisy, scowling glutton; however, when Pa announces it's time to visit the butcher: "We can't eat Alfred!" shout the children. A brilliant solution satisfies everyone, including Alfred.
