Cranky Chicken is super hungry and the crank-O-meter is on high. What can Speedy the worm do to help? How about ... a yummy snack? A day at the beach? An unsurprising party? It's party time for Cranky and Speedy, two Best Feathered Friends!
The second book in a charming illustrated series about mismatched friends who bring joy, companionship and a new perspective to each other's lives. Perfect for newly independent readers and fans of Elephant and Piggie and The Bad Guys.
With three stories in one, this stand alone book in the Cranky Chicken series will delight junior readers.
Follow unlikely friends Cranky the chicken and Speedy the worm on their food, birthday and beach adventures.
In Hungry, Hangry Chicken Speedy tries everything to work out what the Hangry Cranky might want to eat, going through an array of delicious foods! But what if Speedy had only asked Cranky?
The Unsurprising Party sees the two friends navigating what is the best birthday party. But as Cranky has never been to a party before, Speedy describes to Cranky all about worm parties. Can the two friends have a good time, without Cranky being cranky?
Then follow the friends on an outing to the beach, in Best Beach Buds. But nothing is ever easy with Cranky. She has many reasons for not liking the beach, and she particularly doesn’t want to take the bus there! Can Speedy distract Cranky long enough for her to get to the beach and enjoy her day?
These are wonderful stories about friends helping each other expand their horizons, whilst still accepting each other for who they really are.
