The other hens in Farmer Brown's henhouse think that Starlight LaPoule—(hush! Her real name is Ethel Fae Klucksworth)—is short a few feathers. But Starlight doesn't mind. She is busy dreaming about becoming a high-fashion model in the big city. And with the surprise help of her very own chicken fairy godmother, her ridiculous dream may just come true. Or not.
With antic illustrations by cartoonist George Booth, Harry Allard's funny fable is sure to crack up even the most hard-boiled of readers.
