Illustrated by
Megan Lloyd.
Farmers Belle and Fred care for a lost turkey. Meanwhile, to the envy of their neighbors, Belle's garden flourishes due to her "special formula fertilizer" (secret ingredient: turkey droppings). Fred keeps his wife's secret--until he needs help ridding the yard of too many turkeys. Colorful, detailed illustrations (a little too detailed of the turkeys) capture both the fowl chaos and the lush neighborhood gardens.
