Meet the most heroic chickens in town!
 
On Monday, Farmer Greenstalk dropped his watch down the well. . . .

On Tuesday, Mrs. Greenstalk was too tired to make dinner. . . .

 
Who will help the poor Greenstalk family? Chickens to the rescue! The amazing chickens on the Greenstalk farm race to help various family members and farm animals every day of the week. Every day until Sunday, that is, when Emily Greenstalk has a little trouble . . .
 
John Himmelman's expressive illustrations are filled with the kind of hilarious details that will delight young readers.

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.
