Enter a chicken who doesn't want to be like the other chickesn.  She wants to be bold and bright.  She wants to talk about fashion and jewelry.  She wants to dance in the moonlight.  However, the other chickens tell her to tone it down and be normal.  So she asks the owl for some advice.The illustrations are bright, colorful and full of little details.  Seeing a chicken in high heels is a wonderous picture.While the story is is nice, going through the chickens day, I found the poetry to be uneven.  When trying to read out loud it took several tries on some of the pages to be able to speak them easily.  There were a few that were quite easy to read.  I feel it would be better to either switch the writing to prose or to redo some of the verses so that the flow is better achieved.Even with the problem with the writing, I still think it is well worth looking at.
