The chicken crossed the road, that's fact, but 'why' calls for greater analysis. So why not ask the Police Department, Mr. Spock, Martin Luther King Jr, Buddha, Grandad, Colonel Sanders, George W Bush, Homer Simpson, Same Edna, Jessica Simpson and Ned Kelly - surely someone must know! How would these people answer this question? Read the book to find out!
It's a selection of parodies of the original joke (Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side); when answered from the individual perspectives of a wide range of people things aren't always that simple! This not-so-fowl book is slapstick, packed with plenty of creative humour in the illustrations and can be enjoyed at varying levels by a broad audience. Hilarious when read aloud complete with impersonations. A brave chicken and the answer to an age-old question - how egg-citing!
