      *Winner of the 2020 Northern Lights Book Award Honoring Children's Literature of Exceptional Merit PACKED with 22 fun facts about chickens! Gwen the Rescue Hen is the heart-warming story of a quick-witted chicken who discovers the joy of being a hen after she's sprung from an egg-laying farm, and finds her way to a boy named Mateo. Gwen has spent her whole life in a big egg-laying hen house, so she knows very little about what chickens can do (besides lay eggs, of course). A fateful tornado turns her world upside-down and sideways, landing her in a strange new place that's nothing like the hen house. Using her wits and chicken superpowers, Gwen dodges danger at every turn until she finds safety and friendship with a boy named Mateo. Together they discover how extraordinary an ordinary chicken really is. The book includes a bonus section called More About Chickens , where curious readers can learn that chickens have extraordinary eyesight, a complex language of 24 sounds, and are descended from dinosaurs, among other fun facts about chickens.

      Pre Adamka, ktorý je s množstvom ďalších prasiatok natlačený v rýchlo sa pohybujúcom nákladiaku, to nevyzerá dobre. Nevie, kam idú, no jeho rypáčik tuší, že tam vonku je niečo lepšie. A tak sa Adamko dramatickým skokom – vlastne skôr pádom – vydá na prasiatkovské dobrodružstvo, ktoré ho dovedie k novej najlepšej kamarátke, dievčatku menom Sofia. „Nech Adamko pomôže ľuďom vidieť, akými úžasnými osobnosťami prasiatka naozaj sú.“ Sy Montgomery, autorka knihy The Good Good Pig
