Book Reviews of Too Many Chickens
Book Review: Excellent teacher's book for class
Summary: 5 Stars
This delightful, well illustrated tale of a classroom of students and their feather fluffing adventures is an outstanding work of educational real-life fiction. When the farmer drops off a dozen eggs to be incubated, the students soon learn that the cute baby chicks begin to grow into messy, smelly chickens. But the farmer thinks they've done such a great job, she brings in some rabbits and a goat too! Find a plethora of barnyard vocabulary, care, and goods in this cute little book for your class. Learn about the chicken lifecycle, and what animals can be used for in commerce (eggs, angora, and milk). The industrious students manage to sell enough of the farmyard productions to purchase a farm in the end where the animals live happily ever after... and then begin their next big science unit (I hope there's another book to follow this one). Excellent illustrations, action packed scenes, and beautifully written descriptions that young students (K-3) can really use to picture what it's like to hold a baby chick.
