The heartwarming story of a group of kids just looking to do the right thing who bring their community together along the way, from master storyteller Patricia Polacco, author of Thank You, Mr. Falker.
This Kindness Edition features discussion questions at the back of the book to help guide readers through conversations about its story and message! Perfect for classrooms and more!
More than anything in the world, the children want to buy that special Easter bonnet in Mr. Kodinski's shop window for their Miss Eula. She is always so good to them, and how they love to hear her sing—her voice is like slow thunder and sweet rain. But the hat costs money, and the children do not have enough.
Then one day, when they are mistakenly accused of throwing eggs at the Jewish shop owner's window, they discover just the right way to prove their innocence and earn money for the hat at the same time—and bring their community together in shared joy along the way.
With her characteristic full, vibrant colors and rich folk-art style, author-artist Patricia Polacco once again reaches into her childhood and weaves a lasting story of acceptance, trust, and love.
Now with questions at the back of the book to help guide readers through age-appropriate discussions of what this book means, both for our history and through to today, this kindness edition of Chicken Sunday brings celebrated author-illustrator Patricia Polacco's work to a new audience of young readers who can be inspired by its message.
Praise for Chicken Sunday:

* "The text conveys a tremendous pride of heritage as it brims with rich images from her characters' African American and Russian Jewish cultures—A tribute to the strength of all family bonds." —Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Polacco has outdone herself with these joyful, energetic illustrations, her vibrant colors even richer and more intense than usual, while authentic details enhance the interest. A unique piece of Americana." —Kirkus Reviews
