Average customer review:Product Description
"An eerie silence quickly enveloped the Cohen family wagon. That last turn had been a grave mistake. They were no longer en route to California but heading south, deep into the heart of Kentucky". With more personality than most people have to spare, new York artist Sloane Tanen's tiny yellow chickens negotiate the tricky modern world, filled with three-headed blind dates, menacing KFCs, playground popularity battles and annoyingly crowded yoga classes. They perch amid doll furniture, in scenes photographed in glorious colour and brilliantly captioned - their lives will strike you as strangely familiar...;Charming, spiky with off-kilter wit (or waxing jobs gone terribly wrong), and somehow larger than life, these chickens win the hearts of all who behold them.

Customer Reviews
Highly Amusing!
I found this book in the recommended reads section in a bookshop and picked it up to glance at a few pages. I laughed so much that i had to buy it.
Its excellent as a coffee table book and give your vistors a chuckle while you are making the tea/coffee :)
Cute gift idea for Sex and The City types
These fun cartoons will be familiar to readers of You magazine - a quirky take on modern life through the eyes of a cute chick. This would be a nice gift for a female friend.
Secret life of chickens
Made me smile, seeing the world through a chicks eye. A quirky book, some pages were better than others but overall a good book. Something different to have on your book shelf.
