DESCRIPTION:
But where, the hapless hens wonder, is it? First they find a doghouse (loud barking!); then they run into a tractor (ewww, dirty!); and then they stomp into the barn (wild horses!). Who knew the farmhouse was right under their beaks the whole time? Sidesplitting silliness abounds in this second riotously funny read-aloud by Leslie Helakoski, once again illustrated with Henry Cole?s boisterous art.. The four big chickens who were afraid of everything in their wellreceived debut, Big Chickens, are now feeling all cooped up, so they set off to find the farmhouse
"Meh" according to My Never-To-Be-Humble Opinion. I purchased this after falling in love with the original, "Big Chickens". The original is a witty, wonderful book. This one is okay. If you loved the original; you're not guaranteed to love this one. It's okay; but didn't live up to my expectation after the first book. The first book had all those adorable repeats on each page; this one's pretty straightforward. Not written in the same style. Not awful but my expectations were high as "Big. We love the big chickens! H. Wall We bought the original Big Chickens book a couple of years ago and have had so much fun reading it to our daughter. We were happy to learn that another version of Big Chickens had been written and have found it just as entertaining as the first. Our daughter is now 4 1/2 and she still enjoys the nonsensical chatter of the Big Chickens and listening to their silly adventures. We have read both books more times than I can count..

The dangers of the farm are expressed in the highly emotional reactions of the cartoon chickens and their exaggerated actions. Line, color, and placement all contrast the alternating chaos of exploring the farm with the safety of resting in the coop. A witty addition that is sure to elicit giggles from readers.—Julie R. They almost give up, but then decide that chickens can be loud and dirty and wild. In a surprise ending, readers see the farmhouse right next to the chicken coop as the birds wonder, "Did someone move our coop?" Each traveling catastrophe is met with clever rhyming vocabulary and the repetition of phrases, all of which move the story forward with just enough predictability to engage young listeners and beginning readers. . With determination, they make a pell-mell, treacherous dash through the field and arrive, at last, in front of the farmhouse. All rights reserved. From School Library Journal PreSchool
