“As charming as it is genuinely gripping.” ―Shelf Awareness
“Lovely, potent, brightly colored illustrations in a combination of textured collage and paint against white space transition to a dark, moonlit backdrop. Little ones will eagerly count in subsequent readings as they also learn new descriptive vocabulary and cheer for the brave hens. A classic scenario flips the script in this engrossing adventure.” ―Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW

“Surprising, suspenseful...clever...captivating.” ―Foreword Reviews, STARRED REVIEW
“Clever...amusing...dynamic... This one wins for its subtle message of power in numbers.” ―Publishers Weekly
