Chicken Squad by Doreen Cronin- ESSENTIAL

Cronin, Doreen The Chicken Squad. Illustrated by Kevin Cornell. CHAPTER BOOK.  Content: G. Atheneum Books for Young Readers, 2014. $12.99.

This book is about a family of chicks, their mother, and a crazy squirrel. When the crazy squirrel comes into the yard he looks like he just looked death in the face. He claims he has just seen a UFO.  It’s up to Chicken Squad to solve the mystery. Read this book to find out what happens and whether the mystery is solved and what is really lurking behind the chicken coop.

I really liked the illustrations. I also thought the author told the story in a funny and likeable way. I liked the little chicks-my favorite ones are Sugar and Dirt.
