Book Cover & Preview Text
Roo-Star felt that on such a beautiful morning he did not want to be cooped up in an old chicken coop. He took a look around at the other chicken in the coop then thought to himself; “Look at those goofy looking chickens, they look so silly, willy, nilly, sitting around happy just being chickens!”
“I’m so much smarter than you are!” he exclaimed, “I want more out of life then being an old chicken that’s cooped up in an old chicken coop.” I’m the smartest chicken in this coop!
Early the next morning farmer Joe came and unlocked the gate to the coop. Roo-Star hid behind the hens house while he brought in more feed. When Farmer Joe left the gate to the coop open Roo-Star happily strutted right out into the yard. He began to whistle and strut right on down a quiet dirt road.
Roo-Star was so busy whistling and strutting that he did not see Mrs. Boogie Bat hanging upside down in her tree while taking her cozy little nap.
“Hey, hey, hey,” yelled Mrs. Boogie Bat in a very annoyed tone, “you are disturbing my nap and everyone know that it is in the noon time, now what is the meaning of this?”
Roo-Star threw his head back and looked high up into the tree branches. “Being that I am the smartest chicken in the coop, he replied “I think that you take your nap at the oddest time of the day and should take your nap at night.”
“Well how rude!” said Mrs. Boogie Bat as she closed her eyes and quickly resume taking her nap.
Roo-Star Cockily shuffled his feet, bobbled his head, and then resumed strutting right on down the road.
He was so busy whistling and strutting that he did not see Mrs. Jiggy Piggy wallowing in her nice cool mud while basking in the sun….
