American story of grit, friendship, and turkeys--finally reimagined as a
sensational graphic novel.
Missouri 1860: Simon Green is a bad student. His mother is dead
and his father has disappeared. But he's daring, and so when he hears that
turkeys fetch a higher price in Denver, he borrows his teacher's life savings and buys a herd of a thousand birds. Then he sets off on the thousand-mile trek with his dog and a
pair of mules. To survive the odyssey that follows, Simon will need grit, luck
and smarts--and a colorful cast of friends.
Kathleen Karr's beloved middle-grade novel of a resourceful boy and his herd of a thousand turkeys has enchanted readers everywhere since it was first published in 1998. Now it will reach a whole new audience in Léonie Bischoff's enchanting graphic novel, finally available in English.
