linor has always enjoyed being just a little bit naughty-until her new friend Violet shows her what naughty really is. The two young chickens burp loudly whenever they can, play dress-up in Elinor's sisters' best clothes, and eat all the cookies that Elinor's mother set aside for her book group. This bright and lively adventure will have readers laughing out loud as they identify with the secret thrill of being just a little bit naughty. Patti Beling Murphy used the most colorful fowl she could find as models-Rhode Island Red, Black Speckled, and Common White chickens among others.
The illustrations in this book are wonderful, full of vibrant colour. A cute story any child will relate to as none of them are angels all the time! A winner with my three kids aged 2,4,6. Highly recommended.
a winner with my twin girls (age 3.5)

My twin daughters (fraternal, age 3.5) don't like all books, and often they disagree, one liking something that the other dislikes. They agree on this one: it is a winner. One daughter enjoys the chickens being naughty. The other likes the small morality tale. And they both like explaining all the antics the chickens do, including running the water in the bathtub until it flows down the stairs.
