Hilarious photos and simple, earnest text introduce us to the head of the henhouse: Tillie is a REAL chicken, and a very adventurous one, at that!
Unlike the other hens at Little Pond Farm, Tillie isn't one to wait her turn to lay her eggs. And she's certainly not one to stay cooped up all day. Off she goes!
Author Terry Golson and photographer Ben Fink invite you to join Tillie on her first eggs-straordinary adventure. Come along as she explores the cozy world of Little Pond Farm -- and lays her eggs in the unlikeliest of places!
Synopsis
Snowball is not like the other chickens. Marge, Ginger, Twinkydink, and the others are creatures of habit; they always lay their eggs in the same old boxes. But Snowball sets off each day to do a bit of exploring beyond the henyard -- even inside the farmer's house! She lays her eggs in rather unusual spots, and finds some tasty worms along the way.
The farmhouse is packed with funny, vintage chicken ephemera -- images of chickens and eggs everywhere! Amidst all this, can you spot Snowball's eggs?
