One night, Elsie and Mallory sneak out of their pasture; but while Mallory is interested in flirting with the neighboring bulls, Elsie finds herself drawn to the farmhouse. Through the window, she sees the farmer's family gathered around a bright Box God—and what the Box God reveals about something called an \"industrial meat farm\" shakes Elsie's understanding of her world to its core.\u003cbr\u003e There's only one solution: escape to a better, safer world. And so a motley crew is formed: Elsie; Jerry—excuse me, Shalom—a cranky, Torah-reading pig who's recently converted to Judaism; and Tom, a suave (in his own mind, at least) turkey who can't fly, but who \u003ci\u003ecan\u003c\/i\u003e work an iPhone with his beak. Toting stolen passports and slapdash human disguises, they head for the airport.\u003cbr\u003e Elsie is our wise-cracking, pop-culture-reference-dropping, slyly witty narrator; Tom—who does eventually learn to fly (sort of)—dispenses psychiatric advice in a fake German accent; and Shalom, rejected by his adopted people in Jerusalem, ends up unexpectedly uniting Israelis and Palestinians. David Duchovny's charismatic creatures point the way toward a mutual understanding and acceptance that the world desperately needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macmillan Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47041881374960,"sku":"9781427261717","price":13.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781427261717_p0.jpg?v=1763750216","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781427261717","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
