Great book for children

This book is easy to read. I thought it was helpful even for the adult beginner. A great book for a child/parent project, 4-H or school raising chicks. 4 stars because I had to explain many of the words used to my child.

Great instructional books on animals

THis whole series of books is wonderful. For the person who already owns the animal or new to be owner, it is a great reference book.Great for the 4Her or just wanting to learn about the critters.

Great reference tool

My very first chickens are 2 months old now, and I've referred back to this book countless times, for help with making brooder boxes, when to remove the heat lamp, buying feeders/waterers, making our coop, treating diarrhea, when to switch feeds, how to tell a cockerel from a pullet (!), to find out if panting in 90-degree weather is normal (it is), etc., etc. It may be written for kids, but it is not condescending. I appreciate the practical and have-fun approach. I just read about the different chicken sounds, and learned that the cool sound my hens make when they're happy is called "singing." Get the book!

Great book for kids (and adults too)!

My daughter has just about every page in this book marked. She loves the easy read. I love the easy read too. It helped us get started taking care of our new "pets".

Great for adults

This book gave me a lot of information without overwhelming me. The other books I have bought on raising chickens frightened me away with the seeming enormity of the concept...which must be pretty simple on the whole because so many people do it...this book was great!
