Tobin McCauley's life is a whirlwind of chaos with a wild grandmother, unruly siblings, and a father who’s absent in spirit. As he navigates seventh grade, his only solace is a peculiar friend obsessed with chickens. When his grandmother gets arrested on the first day of school, Tobin faces a suspension, a chicken laying green eggs, and a family feud threatening to unravel everything. Can Tobin find order amidst the madness and uncover the secrets his friend believes chickens hold? Dive into a tale where family, friendship, and fowl collide in unexpected ways.
Meet Tobin McCauley. He’s got a near-certifiable grandmother, a pack of juvenile-delinquent siblings, and a dad who’s not going to win father of the year any time soon. To top it off, Tobin’s only friend truly believes that the study of chickens will reveal…the meaning of life? Getting through seventh grade isn’t easy for anyone, but when the first day of school starts out with your granny’s arrest, you know you’ve got real problems. Throw on a five-day suspension, a chicken that lays green eggs, and a family feud that’s tearing everyone to pieces, and you’re in for one heck of a ride.
