The Trouble With Chickens by Doreen Cronin


Retired search and rescue dog J.J. Tully takes on the case of the missing baby chicks in this fun noir-like mystery from popular children's author Doreen Cronin. The Trouble With Chickens has all the humor that readers have come to expect from Ms. Cronin's work.

J.J.'s no nonsense attitude makes him the perfect canine Columbo. Children and parents will get a kick out the brainy baby chick and the villainous indoor dog that J.J. has to deal with to solve his case. A great introductory chapter book for young readers.
