If
you were the Chicken-Chasing
Queen of Lamar County, would you keep trying to
catch Miss Hen, that one big beautiful chicken that
is faster than a mosquito and quicker than a flea-bite?
If Big Mama told you to stop chasing the chickens, would
you stop? What could Miss Hen have up her wing feathers
that would change your goal forever?
You
will love this story of an young African American farm
girl and her favorite chicken! It is a fast-paced read-aloud
that invites sound effects from listeners and is filled
with brilliant, unusual illustrations, colloquial language,
and unique figures of speech. The sweet, tender ending
tops it all!
