Chickens Midge, Pip, and Dot swoon over Rooster Sam's snowy-white tail, golden yellow toes, and, especially, his ability to fly. Their worlds are rocked when they discover he doesn't fly; he hops up to the roof from truck then haystack. The hens are consoled by reminders of Rooster Sam's other stellar qualities. Personality, emotion, and humor leap from Stoeke's acrylic double-page spreads.
