Gimme Shelter: Misadventures and Misinformation

(2) 1-3 Chicken Squad series. Illustrated by Stephen Gilpin. In this fifth misadventure, Sugar digs a storm shelter for a potential weather crisis. The resulting wacky drama parallels real-life political issues as the chickens debate who is welcome to use the shelter. But when a true emergency strikes, the yard's animal inhabitants all bumble through it together. Slapstick humor, a large font, and regular spot art keep this early chapter book series entertaining and accessible.
