Susan Chance holding Vail's Tales Book 5 Crazy Colorful Turkeys

These are no ordinary turkeys.

Crazy Colorful Turkeys follows a spirited flock whose emotions become almost as colorful as their feathers.

As anger and retaliation begin to take over, the characters discover that their choices have consequences and that there is another way forward.

Beneath all the color and fun is a meaningful lesson about emotions, kindness and compassion. It is the kind of story that gives parents and children an easy way to begin conversations about how we respond when our feelings become bigger than we are.

At its heart: Emotional awareness, kindness, forgiveness and compassion.

Carry the Story Forward

Vail’s story did not end with the pages she left behind. It continues every time a child opens one of her books, a student is given an opportunity, a family is supported, or a community comes together through the work of Friends of Vail.

And there is a place for you in that story.

If you would like to be part of the Friends of Vail mission, we invite you to stay connected and help us continue creating opportunities rooted in faith, learning, generosity and community.

Subscribe to the Friends of Vail newsletter to receive updates on our programs, upcoming events, new Vail’s Tales releases and meaningful ways to get involved throughout the year.

You can also support the mission by purchasing and sharing the Vail’s Tales collection, making a donation, volunteering, attending an event or simply introducing someone new to Vail’s story.

Every book shared, every person reached and every act of generosity helps carry her imagination and her heart forward.

Seven stories began with one extraordinary little girl. What they continue to inspire is still being written.
