I don’t know who is more excited to get children’s review books in the mail; me or the kids. \u00a0We just can’t wait to all sit together and read it and as much as I love my Kindle app on my iPad I still love to read a “real” book to my children. \u00a0We recently received The Chicken Problem<\/a><\/em> and we read it through 2 times right in a row it was so good. \u00a0It is about a little girl named Peg who likes to solve problems and she also loves pie. \u00a0One day her Cat and a pig from the farm set out to have a pie picnic in the sun. \u00a0Everything was perfect; Peg had a piece of pie just her size, Cat had a piece of pie just his size and Pig had a piece of pie just his size. \u00a0 There was just one problem there was a little piece of pie that had no one next to Cat. \u00a0Peg didn’t like that so Cat went and brought back a tiny little chick from the chicken coop to have a piece of pie with them. \u00a0Everything would have been perfect but Cat left the door to the chicken coop open and now there were 100 chickens dancing, doing flips, doing the chicken dance and just making Peg freak out. \u00a0So Cat comes to the rescue again and finds the perfect way to get them all back and for them to finally have their pie picnic with just one tiny chick. \u00a0If you are looking for a great book to share with your little ones, The Chicken Problem<\/em> by Jennifer Oxley and Bily Aronson will not disappoint.<\/p>\n
