If you are looking for a little extra reading for the fall holidays for your kiddos, you may want to have them read (or read to them) The Turkey and the Pumpkin which you can find here. The short story is about a turkey who runs away because he doesn't want to be carved for Thanksgiving dinner only to meet a little pumpkin who really wants to be carved for Halloween.

Here are a few comprehension questions to ask your child after reading:
1. Why do you think Oscar wanted to go to the petting zoo?
2. Why was the little pumpkin originally happy to see Oscar?
3. How did the zoo keeper change in the story?
