Chicken in the Kitchen

32 pp. | Simon | February, 2005 | Trade ISBN 0-689-85641-5 $15.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Eleanor Taylor. "There's a chicken in the kitchen, / and she's pokin' like the dickens / at the oven and the bread box. / Just a peckin' and a pickin'." In this bouncy rhyme, a good choice for reading aloud, the chicken causes "pure-dee havoc"; eventually, the narrator realizes she's seeking a place to nest. Cheery illustrations portray the growing disorder in humorous detail.
