Peep, peep, peep! Baby Chick has a lot to say! Everyone in Chick' s family is too busy to chat with her. But when chatty baby Chick adopts a large egg-she finally finds a friend who is a good listener. When her egg goes missing, Chick is heartbroken, until she finds that it has hatched into a brand-new friend!
Dynamic digital illustrations in pastel tones detail Baby Chick' s search for someone to listen and celebrate a joyful quest. Readers will delight in the full-page spreads with simple detailed backgrounds, and will enjoy following the antics of a stuffed elephant toy from page to page. -- "School Library Journal" "Cheerful watercolor illustrations are filled with the round chick' s ceaseless peeping and obvious joie de vivre. By tale' s end, Baby Chick' s family appears to be quite pleased that the exuberant bird has someone who loves listening to her chitchat. " -- "Booklist" "Baby Chick is surrounded by clouds of printed Peep!s throughout the story; these are full of movement indicating unabashed joy. Saturated, summery colors and black-outlined figures lend vibrancy to the story. The text is further enhanced by well-placed, but not overdone, chicken-related puns: Sister is reading A Coop of One' s Own, and when she takes Baby Chick to bed, she suggests "Let' s hit the hay, Baby Chick. A sweet story told with gentle humor. " -- "Kirkus Reviews"
