Overview

Little Joe is lucky to live on a small farm in North Carolina, surrounded by wonderful farm animals including cats, dogs, and ducks. He takes special care of them all, but his favorite is a friendly chicken named Queenie. Why would a boy love a chicken? Queenie is the friendliest, happiest, most pleasant chicken to ever live in the hen house. She's so charming that Little Joe's father allows her to move into her own special box on the front porch. Queenie is a good chicken, and always follows the rules. She never squawks at anyone, or sheds feathers where she shouldn't. Visitors to the farm fall in love with Queenie's shiny feathers and her shinier heart. One day, however, Queenie forgets that even good little chickens can get in great big trouble. Like any boy or girl, Queenie is about to learn that when rules are broken, punishments will follow. Queenie and Little Joe is a whimsical story that's guaranteed to make children laugh and think about the consequences of naughty behavior.
