Little Chicken and Little Duck are friends, even though Little Chickens family lives in a henhouse in the meadow, and Little Ducks family lives in a barrel by the pond. But Little Chickens mother doesnt want him playing with a duck; she says he smells funny. And Little Ducks mother feels the same way about Little Chicken. Now both are lonely. But when a hailstorm strikes, the only way to get shelter is for them to stick together. When their frantic parents finally find them, they realize that maybe having a good friend is more important than having all the right feathers. Brigitte Sidjanskis story is full of heart and humor, brought to life by Sarah Emmanuelle Burgs charming illustrations.
