Chick Magnet by Emma Barry

by 2 Comments

My heart. Emma Barry is so good. At its core, Chick Magnet is hurt/comfort. Nic and Will each start the book in a bad place and though they are in no condition to start a new relationship, they offer each other comfort and understanding. The deep emotion and drama of hurt/comfort is well balanced by the joy of chickens, kittens, friendships, and a variety of banters that range from funny to steamy. Nic has moved to Yagerstown, Virginia with her flock of chickens after being […]

Down on the farm

Farm Crimes V01: Cracking the Case of the Missing Egg by Sandra Dumais

Farm Crimes V02: the Moo-Sterious Disappearance of Cow by Sandra Dumais

by Leave a Comment

If Doctor Dolittle and Amelia Bedelia had a child, it would be the Inspector. Columbo looks like Sherlock Holmes in comparison to Van Hoof! To say Inspector Billiam Van Hoof is bumbling is an understatement. But ages six to nine will be rolling in the cow patties laughing at the antics our not-so-heroic hero. In Farm Crimes V01: Cracking the Case of the Missing Egg our hero gets lost on the way to the farm (at the bottom of the hill that he lives on […]

Sisters and Cake (I’ll take the cake, thanks)

Starla Jean V02 Starla Jean Takes the Cake by Elana K. Arnold

by Leave a Comment

There is nothing like starting book two of a series and not realizing it! Which is what happened to me with Starla Jean Takes the Cake (volume two) by Elana K. Arnold. But the thing is, I did not realize that until after I finished and saw that the name had volume 2 on it. That shows, that while it probably would have been a good idea to read book one, it is not needed. In book two, Starla Jean has a pet chicken named […]

1 plus 1 equals two chicken books

Arithmechicks Take Away: A Math Story by Ann Marie Stephens

by Leave a Comment

If you want a book about math, you need to find Arithmechicks Add Up: A Math Story and Arithmechicks Take Away: A Math Story. Now, these are not just your “one plus one” or “two minus one” stories. A lot is going on allowing them to be fairly busy. Therefore, while the format and the images are for the younger group, the older (up to first grade, maybe low second) can read as well.  There is much to the text and some concepts (which are […]

Birds on the Brain

Sentinel Chickens: What Birds Tell Us About Our Health and the World, by Peter C Doherty

by Leave a Comment

After over eighteeen months of pandemic, I’m sure most people have read a book or two about pandemics, disease outbreaks, or even just viruses. Most of these books probably don’t leave the reader feeling very relaxed. Sentinel Chickens: What Birds Tell Us About Our Health and the World, is not like that. Full of amicable ancedotes about birds, diseases and their relations with regards to humans, this books was such a gentle read that I felt that I could take it to the beach and […]

Poultrygeist by Eric Geron

One not so little pug named Pig, is a greedy pup. It is Halloween and all he wants to do is to not only get the treats but to get the right treats. And then Pig wants to eat the treats! And if you are stingy with treats, you will smell more than his feet in Pig the Monster (Pig the Pug) by Aaron Blabey. Of course, Pig earns that a dog should not eat a lot of chocolate (after all it can make you, […]
