Davis’s familiar character-collectibles, Big Jack and Goldie, come to life in this enchanting, full-color story of two chickens in love. The clever, superbly illustrated story takes us through the courtship, marriage, and parenthood of a loving couple holding firmly to their traditional values. The story takes place on a farm in Southwest Missouri, “far from the big cities, snuggled in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains,” similar to the one where the author lives.
