The unbeatable mother-son team of award-winning and bestselling author Jean Van Leeuwen, whose Oliver and Amanda Pig books are a children's literature staple, and her son, up-and-coming illustrator David Gavril (Penelope Nuthatch and the Big Surprise), have created a charming picture book very much in the spirit of "Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type". Rumor has it that Mrs. Farmer is making chicken soup, so the chickens are on the run - except for poor Little Chickie, who has a bad cold...she hides in the hayloft and in a milk pail and amongst the sheep, but each time her sneezing gives her away. Can she keep ahead of Farmer? And could it be that the rumor is wrong?
