(3) 1-3 Illustrated by John Eastwood. From the day he hatches, Frank the chicken longs to swim with the ducks. The farmer's family fashions a wetsuit and fins for him out of a hot-water bottle and a rubber glove, and for a time he is content. But as he grows, he realizes that he misses leading a normal chicken lifestyle. Illustrated with comic line drawings, the short chapter book is entertaining and easy to read.
