In "Chicken Sunday," a young girl named Patricia and her brother are close friends with an elderly neighbor, Mr. Kodinsky, who is an artist from Eastern Europe. Every Sunday, the children help him in his garden and learn life lessons from him. When they overhear Mr. Kodinsky mention his longing for a special Easter hat, they decide to raise money to buy him one. The children come up with a plan involving a chicken that they paint to attract attention and sell. Through their kindness and creativity, they learn about friendship, generosity, and the beauty of cultural differences. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
