A new young chapter book series about a chicken who loves math, science, and learning new things--by New York Times bestselling author Nancy Krulik for fans of Unlimited Squirrel and Bumble and Bee.

Chirpy is a young chicken stuck in the family coop. But she's not like the other chickens who just sit around peck peck pecking all day. She's intrigued by the children who come home from a place called school. They always look so happy! (Well, most days.)

So Chirpy sneaks onto the bus one morning, hides in the classroom . . . and discovers a true love of math. When she shares what she's learned with the other chickens, they think she's one kernel short of a cob.

Even so, Chirpy is determined to find a formula for fowl success by pecking away. But when a hungry fox tries to attack the coop, can she find the equation for a simple solution?

With lively two-color art throughout and a fun hands-on simple machine activity, this eggs-ellent hilarious young chapter book series starter is a Grade-A pick for emerging readers to get them eggs-ited about science and math.

Reviews:

"This STEM series debut for newly independent readers provides a light but engaging look at simple machines."—School Library Journal

"A smart, sprightly chapter book series starter. . . . Short, dialogue-driven paragraphs by Krulik (the Princess Pulverizer series) are peppered with 'eggs-tra' humor and chicken wordplay . . . while Alder’s (Doggo and Pupper) cartoon spot illustrations, rendered in tones of yellow, gray, and black, provide plenty of visual characterization"—Publishers Weekly

 

My Review: 

The Great Mathemachicken series, kicks off with Hide and Go Beak. Nancy Krulik has written a cute story of a chicken, Chirpy, who learns the world of math. I was entertained watching Chirpy finding a new found love. Such a charming little tale. 

I enjoyed the talents of Charlie Alder looking at the illustrations in Hide and Go Beak. I loved seeing Chirpy being brought to life. It was fun to see her in action.

I am giving Hide and Go Beak a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who are between the ages of five and nine. It would be a perfect addition for a classroom shelves. 

I received a digital copy of  Hide and Go Beak from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
