I can't remember the title, only that it was about chickens, I think. Anyway, I remember reading it with both of my kids sitting beside me only to be very surprised at the last page when one of the characters died. It was so sudden that I almost had to bite my lip from laughing. There wasn't any indication on the cover or even in the story for that matter. It was only when I flipped to the copyright page that I saw the topics, death and dying. It was an older book so I wonder if there was a push to not be so blatant about the topic? I don't know. It was a strange delivery. <br />And I agree, real life can be pretty scary. <br />Great series of posts, Lauri. :) Coleen Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15863892455120177554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953622313060163187.post-74205340061190869662014-11-13T18:55:03.831-05:002014-11-13T18:55:03.831-05:00Another bunch to add to my list.
