Publisher Summary

Meet the most heroic chickens in town! On Monday, Farmer Greenstalk dropped his watch down the well. . . . On Tuesday, Mrs. Greenstalk was too tired to make dinner. . . . Who will help the poor Greenstalk family? Chickens to the rescue! The amazing chickens on the Greenstalk farm race to help various family members and farm animals every day of the week. Every day until Sunday, that is, when Emily Greenstalk has a little trouble . . . John Himmelman’s expressive illustrations are filled with the kind of hilarious details that will delight young readers. The fun here comes from all the frenzy in the pictures, and it will take kids more than one look to see all the silliness. - Booklist
