A girl discovers ghost chickens in her new home. Can she expose the truth?
Florence Fortescue, a ten-year-old aspiring journalist, is stuck in the countryside and discovers her new home is haunted by ghost chickens. Her parents are clueless, and Florence must use her wits to convince them to return to the city. Armed with her homemade newspaper, 'TERROR IN THE HAUNTED COOP,' she sets out to reveal the truth. But when her plan flops, she must team up with an odd neighbor, two peculiar dogs, and the ghostly chickens themselves. Can Florence uncover the mystery and find her way back to city life?
After eating a glowing green egg, aspiring journalist Florence Fortescue can suddenly see that her house is overrun with ghost chickens in this delightfully bizarre and hilarious first book of a new early middle-grade series for readers aged 8 to 12! Ten-year-old aspiring journalist Florence Fortescue did NOT want to move to the country, leaving her best friend and city life behind. To make matters worse, Florence is shocked to discover a Minions-esque flock of ghost chickens running amok all over her new house – and her parents are oblivious! Clearly, Mom and Dad need to take their precious daughter back to the city RIGHT NOW. If only she could convince them . . . Using her journalistic skills, Florence cooks up a sizzling exposé in her homemade newspaper: TERROR IN THE HAUNTED COOP! But when that plan fails, Florence has to enlist the help of her weird new neighbor, two bizarre dogs and maybe even the ghost chickens themselves!
