Join Jenny Peckles and her chicken friends for a wild, rhyming adventure – perfect for fans of Hairy Maclary and Oi Frog!

Jenny Peckles lays eggs with speckles.

Featherly Botts lays eggs with spots.

Sally McSquawk lays eggs that can TALK?!

Hang on a minute …

Down on Old Worrall’s Farm, the hens are laying their eggs … and FAKING spots, stripes, sparkles and speckles. Why? Because they all want to be in this book!

But it turns out spots, speckles and talking eggs aren’t what makes these chickens special. For this bunch of intrepid chickens, real life is FAR more exciting …
