This book is hilarious!! I checked it out from my local library for my daughter and now she insists that we read it every night. I had to go out and purchase my own copy just recently. When mom is too tired to cook dinner, no worries. When brother needs help with his homework, look no further, the chickens will help. Try spotting the one chicken who appears in every scene, sleeping and protecting her egg.
