Welcome to the wonderful world of chickens! This beloved barnyard bird
is full of surprises. Did you know some chickens are so small they can
perch in the palm of your hand, and others have feathers that look like a
beard? Chickens can learn to count up to four and have excellent
hearing-many even like to listen to music!
Chickenology
takes young readers (and grown-ups) on a fascinating and informative
tour of chickens. Discover the incredible variety of chickens with
different origins, breeds, and feather patterns, delve into chicken
anatomy and evolution, and even learn the basics of chicken care.
With
a playful tone and irresistibly charming illustrations by rising star
Camilla Pintonato, this lively visual encyclopedia presents chickens in
all of their feathered glory.
