Author Birthday: Aaron Reynolds
A very Happy Birthday to author Aaron Reynolds! His picture books are filled with vibrant illustrations that keep children engaged, and fun word play that will have adults rolling on the floor laughing.
Chicks and Salsa is one of my favorites. The chickens at Nuthatcher farm are getting sick and tired of eating the same ol' chicken feed. The rooster leads the charge to raid the garden and create homemade salsa. When the rest of the barnyard animals catch of whiff of that spicy goodness, a fiesta is on!
Of course, when the farmer and his wife find out, they copy the animals' idea and all the veggies they need for salsa disappear. Naturally, the chickens have to figure out what culinary style they're going to try next.
