Unusual Chickens for the Exceptional Poultry Farmer

man I loved this!! So sweet and funny.

Also I loved how it covertly shows microaggressions and the importance of representation–Sophie is half white, half Latina and she notes how the librarian is super nice to her because she originally assumed that Sophie was the daughter of a farm laborer, rather than the daughter of the family who inherited the farm; Sophie is super excited when she meets a Filipina journalist who speaks Spanish...it's all organic to the story but it's something that could be a lightbulb moment for some readers.

Also you might learn a surprising amount about actual chickens from this book?
