Meet SUPER CHICKEN - a small chick with a BIG imagination! Small chick. Big brain. Here comes Super Chicken - a little chicken with a giant imagination. With novelty die-cuts and adorable artwork throughout, this story has our hero, Super Chicken, turning everyday objects and shapes into ships, exotic animals, and more, all with the help of his magic goggles. Without them, Chicken's bath is just a bath. With them, Super Chicken is sailing the high seas! Rebecca Purcell's unique art uses a high-contrast color palette including black, white, red, blue, yellow, green, and orange. The high-contrast colors are perfect for babies 0-8 months, while the innovative die-cuts, fun imaginative scenes, and simple text will make toddlers ages 2-3 big fans of Super Chicken! *Die-cuts! *Foil! PreS-A stylized, spindly legged, yellow chick dons cape, boots, and goggles to transform block playing into rescuing a baby dragon from a castle and bath time into a high-sea adventure. Primary colors and large patterns dominate the illustrations, and Purcell makes opportunity for investigation by including numbers, shapes, and letters in the well-ordered backgrounds. Die cuts on each spread provide a peek-a-boo guessing game. This simple board book is supersized in extension activities.-Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VAα(c) Copyright 2013.
