Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Few young readers have been able to resist the smile provoking poultry series created by the husband/wife team of Mary Jane and Herb Auch. Titles such as Peeping Beauty, Superchicken and Egg Marks the Spot have won the Auchs a host of fans. The Plot Chickens is sure not only to delight those familiar with these stories but garner many new followers.
Henrietta, our favorite pop-eyed chicken, loves books, so she goes to the library to find some books to read to the other chickens in the coop. Next, Henrietta decides that if reading is so much fun writing a book must be even more enjoyable. As she begins to type her story (hunt and peck system, of course) young readers will learn the seven cardinal rules of creating a story from finding a main character to developing a plot to making your story come alive by using all five senses.
Writing isn't Henrietta's only skill, she also decides to make her own books. Of course, Mary Jane Auch's wonderfully colorful illustrations will bring many smiles. So, The Plot Chickens is an opportunity for young readers to both laugh and learn.
