What the Chicken Knows

A charming and eye-opening exploration of the special relationship between humans and chickens from Sy Montgomery, one of our finest chroniclers of the natural world (The New York Times). For more than two decades, Sy Montgomerywhose The Soul of an Octopus was a National Book Award finalisthas kept a flock of chickens in her backyard. Each chicken has an individual personality (outgoing or shy, loud or quiet, reckless or cautious) and connects with Sy in her own way.
