Title: Royal and Snuggles
Description: "'They're stupid!' Not so, thought Coleen Hefley when she ordered baby turkeys through the mail, embarking on the remarkable adventure of raising twenty little gobblers in her own backyard. Sammy, the curious but wise-cracking daughter, is dubious of her mother's choice for a pet. But wonderment mixed with side-splitting hysteria erupt when Royal and Snuggles grow up and capture everyone's heart with their amazing antics and quirky personalities. Snuggles fancies herself as a construction crew supervisor and Royal gets on TV and goes into politics. These two unforgettable fowl, plus a zany cast of other critters, including a boxing bunny and an impeccably-mannered goose, round out this delightful true story."--Page 4 of cover
