Reviews
• Snippet of review from JD Belanger, Backyard Poultry
• If there is a young child in your life who is (or ought to be) interested in poultry, this book is just what you’ve been looking for: a unique combination of information and entertainment wrapped in a wonderful package of delightful photographs and engaging design. (The comic-book-like captions on many of the outstanding pictures are particularly enchanting.)

• From Elaine Belanger, editor Backyard Poultry magazine
