The Chicken-Chasing Queen of Lamar County by Janice Harrington

The Chicken-Chasing Queen of Lamar County
By Janice Harrington; illustrations by Shelley Jackson

Miss Hen is smart, fast and knows all the tricks. Is that enough to keep her safe from the girl who calls herself the Chicken-Chasing Queen? Dynamic illustrations bring this squawking, pecking, feather-flying battle of wits to a conclusion that works out fine for both girl and bird.
