Four chickens nicknamed Dirt, Sugar, Poppy, and Sweetie go on a vacation to visiting a farm full of chicken cousins which are all named starting with the letter B. Sugar goes back to get jelly beans and meets a mysterious big bird called Buger. Then Poppy’s shoe goes missing and they are on the hunt to find the missing jellybeans and shoe. Illustrations engage the reader throughout the book.
Verdict: It is a great early reader chapter book with fun chicken humor. It is silly and makes you laugh.
