Easy-to-read, rhythmic text about a group of farm animals, led by a tenacious duck, who play a noisy game together.

With whimsical illustrations by Paulette Bogan, Aaron Reynolds has created a hilarious picture book about one rooster's quest for culinary delight. What happens at Nuthatcher Farm when the chickens get tired of the same old chicken feed? The rooster hatches a plan, of course! With a pinch of genius, a dash of resourcefulness, and a little pilfering from the farmer's garden, the chickens whip up a scrumptious snack of chips and salsa. When the rest of the barnyard gets a whiff of the spicy smells and want to join in, it can mean only one thing . . . FIESTA! But when the big day arrives, all their spicy southwestern supplies are gone! It seems that Mr. and Mrs. Nuthatcher have caught on to the flavor craze as well, and the only thing left for the animals to do is to try a new culinary style-ooh la la!

Just when you think the coop craze couldn’t get any hotter, gorgeous male models cuddle up to some seriously cute chicks—baby chickens, that is. Hot on the heels of the wildly successful Hot Guys and Baby Animals, comes Hot Guys and Cute Chicks, featuring absurdly funny photos of male models posing with their fuzzy little friends, paired with tongue-in-cheek personals giving the likes and dislikes of the guys and the chicks. It doesn’t get much sweeter than an adorable little fledgling cradled in the arms of a strong and sexy man. Hot Guys and Cute Chicks will have you saying “Whoa!” and “Awww…!” at the same time.

When a family brings home chicks from a local farm, they must do everything they can to make sure their feathered friends thrive in their new environment. With the help of their knowledgeable parents, the children provide the baby chicks with food, water, warmth, and proper shelter. Young readers will chirp along happily page after page, learning to read as they watch the fuzzy little chicks grow into downy adult chickens, who will eventually lay eggs of their own! Step 1 readers have big type and easy words, rhyme and rhythm, and picture clues, for children who know the alphabet and are ready to read.

A wonderfully silly take on library story time that’s perfect for children, chickens, and everyone in between Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to story time at the library, of course! The children like the chicken, the chicken likes the children, and everyone loves story time. So it’s no surprise that more children (and more chickens!) get in on the fun until there are more kids and critters than the librarian knows what to do with. Luckily, she comes up with a creative solution and manages to find little R & R for herself. Fans of Bats in the Library and Library Lion will fall in love and story time will never be the same!

Can you guess what is hatching fomr this egg? It's a chick! You willlearn all about a chick's life cycle in this book.
