Missouri, summer 1860. After failing first grade four times at age 15, Simon, automatically awarded a diploma by Miss Rogers, is refused entry to second grade and must politely spread his wings. So, that very evening, upon hearing this bad news, when he learns that turkeys are worth 20 times more in Denver than back home, he decides to acquire 1,000 birds and transport them 1,000 kilometers to prove his business acumen. He recruits an unlikely team to escort him, with whom he will have to cross the desert, brave the Rocky Mountains, and negotiate with the Native Americans! Will they allow this strange caravan to pass, a caravan destined for Denver to make its fortune? Kathleen Karr’s magnificent novel, adapted by Léonie Bischoff, author of the brilliant Anaïs Nin: On the Sea of Lies, marks her debut as a children’s author.
