In Chicken the Kitten we first meet the kitten called Chicken. She's small and fluffy and cute - with a touch of naughtiness incarnate. She doesn't cheep like a chicken, she miaows like a kitten and her eyes shine ginger bright. Chicken is a lively, joyful, curious kitten - a kitten whose energy almost transforms her into the creatures she reminds us of. The evocative illustrations vividly capture Chicken's colourful personality. Using lush and entertaining imagery, the illustrations merge the familiar with the exotic as Chicken bounds like a wild animal through her domestic world. But at the end of a long day Chicken is still a kitten, curled up on the couch, fast asleep (well, almost).
