Description
Chicken wants to help Earl and Pearl plant their pumpkins, but she only manages to get in the way, until grasshoppers invade the pumpkin patch and Chicken is the only one who can stop them.
Quick Summary
A clumsy chicken who accidentally becomes the hero of the pumpkin patch makes for an unforgettable underdog story that kids will beg to hear again and again. The humor shines when Chicken's helpful attempts backfire hilariously, then pivots to genuine excitement when she alone spots the grasshopper invasion and springs into action. If your kid likes "The Bad Seed" or "I Want My Hat Back," they will adore this feathered friend who tries so hard and saves the day anyway. Perfect for kindergarten through second graders who love silly animal stories with a triumphant twist.
