My afternoon of reading

 Actually... more like trying to read...

 whatcha got there mom?

 any food?

even the turkeys came over to investigate

uh oh here comes Henrietta...

 what's going on here?

 whoa too close!

Max decided he'd find out what this book was all about...

 apparently he found what he read rather boring...

 oh come on Max, it's not that boring. It's a love story... well kind of. It's set in Constantinople... what? you don't know what that means? Well.... it's a long story.

Snickerdoodle wanted to learn more about the story but he was getting pretty tired of standing.

 hey Henrietta, you should see the look Max is giving you...

 it's really not that bad...

 Even Maggie came over to check out the book...

 Then Sammy came over to look, or taste the book rather...

Hmm... what's this story about?

there are not goats in this book you say?

then why are you even reading it? I think I should just eat it...
