While on a field trip to Farmer Mack Nugget's farm, students decide to save the lives of 8 gobblers cleverly named Ollie, Stanley, Larry, Moe, Wally, Beaver, Shemp, and Groucho. This funny book is by the author of the Captain Underpants series. For maximum comic effect, read this one aloud.

On a more serious note . . .

Author Barbara Cohen won the National Jewish Book Award for this bittersweet story about a third grade girl from an immigrant family. Be prepared to cry.
