1-3Chicken Squad series.
Illustrated by
Stephen Gilpin.
What is that new structure in the corner of the yard, and who lives there? In their third misadventure (The Chicken Squad; The Case of the Weird Blue Chicken), the goodhearted, demented poultry quartet investigates. Soon the mystery turns into an altruistic, if daft, rescue mission. Cronin is a master of comic misunderstandings, and Gilpin rises admirably to the challenge.
