Sunshine Bell: The Autobiography of a Genius (The Divers Collection)

Doolittle, thou shouldst be living at this hour! Geniuses appear in every species because that’s how evolution works. But how would we know if an Einstein among calves turned up on a ranch in Abilene or a Mozart among squabs in Central Park? Sunshine Bell: The Autobiography of a Genius is the story of a uniquely gifted hen and two young boys in Chapel Hill who furnish her with a means of communicating—with them at first and now with us in this witty and useful edition. Readers of every age and any taxonomy will thrill at Sunshine’s many close calls and find that sharing her wise and radiant view of the world is like stepping into a vast and glittering work by Fabergé.
