"The missing turkey" by Alejandro M.

     There was once a house that liked the holidays so much, every time it was overdone. The kings were that family. The kings tried so hard to impress their children, abby and jake. But this thanksgiving will be different from the rest. Jake woke up on thanksgiving eager and ready. The day had just begun as the birds started there chirping he knew today would be special. He went downstairs and saw mrs king starting to make the mashed potatoes. “Son will you go with your dad outside and get the turkey?” She said. Jake went outside and saw it. A nice juicy plump turkey. It's been here for a week he even named it. Joe was its name. He couldn't kill his friend, so he took it inside. He went to tell his sister about it so he left it on the counter. He went up and said “Abby Abby i brought in the turkey help me hide it so the don't kill Joe.” She said ok and they went downstairs to find him. But he wasn't there. They searched everywhere for joe. even asked the neighbors. They asked their dad tom he said he hasn't seen him but he took them to the neighbors the jetsons. They were making a ham. Ema the neighbor said happy thanksgiving. She said she hasn't seen joe but they'll look for him. The basement was the a unknown land in the house. But they checked everywhere. They went outside and looked in the treehouse he wasn't there but they kept looking.They went thru the house and looked everywhere they went in the rooms,bathrooms,closets everywhere. But there was no sign of Joe. As mom began to set the table he knew he had to tell her. He started, ”mom.” But then she said what's that sound in the chimney. As jake went he heard gobble gobble. So that's where it was, lucky we didn't turn it on. They had dinner and everyone was happy, accept the turkey.
