Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Attention shark lovers! Freddy Thresher is a first-grade expert on sharks, and each book features cool facts about sharks as an added bonus.
It's a Thanksgiving disaster for Freddy Thresher! When his first-grade class begins planning the annual Thanksgiving play, everyone will have a role. Freddy's friends are all happy to be Pilgrims and Indians, but there is one part that nobody wants to be the turkey! Freddy hopes he won't get the part, but you guessed it he gets the unlucky role. Now Freddy has to find a way to play the turkey while everyone is laughing at him.
First-grade and kindergarten teacher Abby Klein has been teaching for almost twenty years, and she brings her firsthand knowledge of children to this popular series. She tailors each story and the language in it for new readers - using just the right words as well as the issues that are most important to children this age.
For extra fun, the word "fin" is hidden in every illustration, and children will have a good time playing the games in "Freddy's Fun Pages" at the end of the book.
Freddy is unhappy about playing the turkey in his first-grade Thanksgiving Day play, especially with Max bullying and teasing him, but his grandfather and principal both give him ideas for making the part fun.
