Very cute story of a chicken that wants to be a dog and finds that doing all the things dogs do isn't that easy. I guess the lesson is that exploring your imagination is fun--but in the process you may learn to better appreciate what you were born with a bit more. Nice illustrations! ( )

Chicken Does Not Want to Be a Chicken By Elsa Takaoka and Catherine Toennisson
Colorful children's book about a chicken. Very specific pictures as to what the words say.
Problem is the chicken wants no part of being a chicken: clucking, peck, laying an egg.
He wants to be another animal and do everything they do until one chases him!
Because of what happens you wonder if he will still want to be that animal or be a chicken.
Cute story! ( )
