Should we obey all the laws of our land? What if a law is trivial, oppressive, or just plain wrong? What should we do about it? In 1775, George Washington supported a boycott of British products and began the American Revolution. In 1915, Irish immigrants found jobs in spite of the unwritten law which said, â No Irish Need Apply.â In 1958, Rosa Parks, a black woman, would not give up her seat on a bus to a white man, and desegregation began. In 2006, the City Council of San Juan Bautista, California, passed a law forbidding people to feed wild chickens. A tourist from Maine and a rooster named SIR decide that the City Councilâ s law is trivial, oppressive, and just plain wrong. In an act of civil disobedience, they band together to disobey the City Councilâ s law and get their food and the Cityâ s tourists back again. This book is their story.
