This was such a unique idea for a young readers book, being an animal lover myself how could I pass it up?! Katie Christine gives us a little peek into the life of a quirky hen, Petunia. The other hens aren't a huge fan of change or anything out of ordinary and when Petunia sets their world upside down the gossip starts and before long it gets out of hand. There are several characters throughout the story including Macy the cat, Silkie the human woman, the Orpas who rule the roost and Ronald the one eyed fox; each has their own personality and add to the story. I have to say I really fell in love with them all! Katie Christine paints a very vivid image of the story (and the illustrations by Jonathan Edward at the beginning of each chapter were very cute as well).  The only down fall I could find in the book is the vocabulary might be out of the intended readers reach, but it would be a good learning tool for them to look up the words they don't understand.  I will give you all a little warning though, the ending leaves you hanging a bit and leaves you wanting to read Impeccable Petunia Part 2!Note: This ebook was sent to me for review by the author.
