Tough Chicks
From the moment Penny, Polly, and Molly hatch from their eggs, the whole farm knows they are truly tough chicks. They wrestle worms, rope roosters, and are often found under the hood of the tractor. All the other animals and even the farmer himself tell Mama Hen to make her chicks good. “They are good!” Mama Hen replies. But could her chicks be too loud, too independent, and too tough? Lively language and bold illustrations capture all the fun and humor of this delightfully different farmyard romp that’s also a resounding endorsement for letting girls be girls (even if they’re loud and tough and like to play with tractors.) Ages 4-8
Cock-a-doodle Boo!
Ronnie the Rooster wakes up the animals on Sleepydale Farm. Children will love searching for Ronnie as he sneaks around the farm, and will delight in the surprise on the faces of the large pop-up characters as their sleep is so rudely interrupted! Ages 3-5

Buck Buck is the Smith family’s pet, but she refuses to behave like a normal chicken. How she wears out the Smiths’ patience and finally redeems herself makes a satisfying conclusion. Ages 6-8

Cock-A-Doodle-Hooooooo!

“Two birds of a feather, a chick and her dad, lived by the shore, in a radical pad. A legend in surfing, Chick’s dad ruled the Roost. Chick’s dream was to learn every move he produced.” So begins the story of a little chick and her dad who take to the beach so she can finally learn how to surf. At first Chick’s mood is foul as she struggles through some gnarly waters, but soon she is catching waves on her own board and even doing righteous tricks, just like her rad dad! Filled with cool surf lingo, this sweet rhyming picture book is perfect for summer at the beach and for celebrating the love between a father and a daughter. Ages 3-7
