Big Chickens Fly the Coop

32 pp. | Dutton | January, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-525-47915-4 $15.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Henry Cole. Feeling cooped up, the ever-anxious Big Chickens fowl tentatively decide to venture to the farmhouse. Finding it proves tricky: they mistakenly head toward barking dogs, a tractor, and wild horses. Cole's zany illustrations and the story's repetitive structure have the same appeal as in the first adventure, though this book does feel a bit redundant.
