Hello, I am Tom the turkey. Most people know me by the name Tom the turkey. But they don’t know which turkey is Tom the turkey. I have a huge family. But a lot of people don’t know which turkey is part of Tom’s family. My family and I live in Turkey Island.
Other turkeys know me as well. I also have a bunch of friends. I survive by blending into leaves, trees, grass, and dirt. Sometimes I visit the human world. Nobody in Turkey Island knows what they call their world.
We just call it what ever they call their world human world. Most of my friends got caught and eaten for dinner. None of my family members got eaten for dinner. I am usually safe because I don’t visit the human world that much.
On 2008th Thanksgiving I will visit the human world. I will escape by wearing a costume of a monkey. But I am still practicing what sound a monkey makes.
Gobble Gobble, gotta go

My name is Sally. I am a turkey. Thanksgiving is almost here.
Will I get eaten? Please don’t eat me. I taste bad.
If I get spotted I will hide. Where should I hide? I will hide behind the fence. Or I will blend into the leaves. If you find me at a store don’t buy me.
If I got caught I would peck the head off and then I would run away to my family.
I don’t like Thanksgiving. But I like Christmas better.
Cross your fingers so I won’t get caught.
I am scared and nervous. I can’t wait till Christmas. (If I’m alive)

I'm a turkey. My name is Happy. But I'm not so happy cause I don't want to be eaten! Thanksgiving is coming so I'm scared. But I have a plan that just might work. First I get a net and tie it with a rope around a tree. It will be right where I live in the woods. And when they come to get me the trap will catch them.
To be continued

Turkeleenie’s Plans
I am a turkey and my name is Turkeleenie. I live on a farm. There is 3 days until Thanksgiving. Everyone thinks that the farmer is going to cook me. But he won’t. Will he? Well I don’t think so.
Let’s change the subject shall we?! Ok I can can can’t………..ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. [Snoring]. Sorry about that. OMG! I slept for 2 days straight. You know what that means? IT'S THANKSGIVING! OH NO!! What will I do? What will I do? What will do? I’ve got it!!!
I will make a plan! I will simply hide behind a cow on Thanksgiving because the cow is huge and the farmer will trip and break his glasses.
In an hour or so the farmer went to get Turkeleenie. She was right, he tripped and he broke his glasses.
The End :-]=http://

The Escape
Hi my name is Gobble. I am nervous for Thanksgiving. I live on a farm. I heard my farmer say he wants to eat me for his Thanksgiving dinner. So I went up to the barn. The animals were talking about how they heard about me being the Thanksgiving dinner. They thought of a plan to save me. This is it.
The next day I unlocked the lock with my pecker. I ran into the barn. The animals were still asleep. I grabbed the key for the house. I wrote a note to them. It said, “I am leaving”. Then I ran into the forest. Now I am safe in the forest.

There was a turkey. It was a very fat turkey.
A hunter came and the turkey was scared. He ran and ran till he could not run anymore. The Turkey said to himself I’m too old to get shot. I have to take care of my family.
The turkey didn’t see the hunter anymore. I’m glad that I’m not a turkey dinner anymore.
I better get home. It’s getting late. I’m home said the turkey. I’m going to sleep now. Good night.

Hi, I am a turkey named Sofia. It's three days 'til Thanksgiving Day. The farmer is going to cook me. I am nervous. Maybe I will hide from the farmer. I'll hide behind the cow, because I do not want to die and be his Thanksgiving dinner. So I am very scared, and terrified for what lies ahead. I want to see my friends and family, for it might be my last time. I didn't want to get cooked. Suddenly I saw the farmer coming and I ran as fast as I could.
He didn't get me, I am safe, it is Thanksgiving Day! I am very joyful that I can be with my friends and family. The farmer took nobody and everyone was safe. The farmer and his wife were very happy and had a great Thanksgiving. And Sofia and her family were happy together and had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day.

If I were a turkey and I was getting served for dinner I would run away.
If that doesn’t work then I don’t know what I would do. I just hope that I don’t get cooked for dinner.
I know maybe I can talk to them and scare them away. No that won’t work because turkeys say gobble.
I’m going to try to run away first.

Raymond the turkey man the one that does escape.
My name is Raymond the turkey man. On Thanksgiving they are going to eat me. It will suck. If I run when they try to eat me. If they catch me I will never see my friends again.
I hope they don’t catch me. I will never see my parents again. I said GOBBLE! I was scared because they were right behind me. They caught me I screamed GOBBLE! My friend came. I was happy. He said shh! They might hear you, all your friends are here. We're here to help you. We're going to pull for you he said. Don’t scream he said. This might hurt he said.
Oops he said, run. He found out. I have to go to the bathroom. There’s no time he said, run. Ok!! Is it Thanksgiving? Yes So it’s the 27th . Let’s hide in the bush, OK. Let’s go then.

The Turkey Escape
Once upon a time there lived a turkey. She was small. Her name was Donna. She grew 15 inches every single day. When she grew 55 inches there was a man that tried to get her except Donna ran fast. Finally when the man caught another turkey but they wanted 1000 turkeys, Donna got tired. She rested.
When she got up she was at a boiling store. Where they cut turkeys in medium small pieces Donna pushed the man with her beak. She ran and she found a safe place.
She made new friends. Her friends were a rabbit and a Mole and a Bird.
