Catch That Chicken! is about a lively little girl called Lami. She loves catching chickens and she is the best in her village at catching them too! A book for all those who also love chickens, and for those who are brave and resourceful just like Lami!
…Angela Brooksbank's beautiful artwork captures the energy and the beauty of the West African setting perfectly.

Brooksbank’s vibrant illustrations have the look of quickly stroked pastels and teem with motion and activity. Chickens in many colors populate the pages, and the interactions among both adults and children emphasize the strong sense of community in this village.
