This 2020 Children's Book Council of Australia: Early Childhood Notable Book is a story of discovering that where you are is where you were meant to be. Ray wants to escape from the book to the"Real World" until Janine points out that in the"real world" chooks can't talk, they don’t drink lattes, never wear vests and they often get eaten. Suffice to say Ray decides to stay in his book world.

Perfect for Book Week, activities include making an origami chicken, a chicken book mark, Venn diagram on real versus book chickens, a snap or memory game using images inspired by the book and reflecting on what is important and makes you happy.
