Featuring the characters of the acclaimed The Chicken Thief. Chicken, Fox and their soon-to-hatch egg are a happy family, but there is nothing to eat. Chicken leaves the island to catch some food.

When she finally gets home with her bounty, she discovers a worrying scene. Perhaps the real danger is inside her house...
Reviews / Votes
"The popularity of cartoons with adults and lack of childish dialogue in this book would make this a great gift for any age." -- The Guardian (UK) "The magical thing about this story is that there are no words. All of that action is told entirely through pictures, and they are charming works of art" -- The Bookbag (UK) "The Fishing Trip is a very witty adventure which will make children and adults alike cry with laughter: I found it so funny that I felt like throwing myself on the floor and laughing my head off" -- School Librarian Journal (UK)More details
