First in a new series, perfect for those readers moving into chapter books.

A scaredy cat squirrel seeks the chickens help in combatting an enormous...something...something big...something scary...in the backyard. A fun little first mystery.

A hysterical squirrel, a sleeping watch dog, and something big and scary in the yard, this is a job for Chicken Squad! Putting their detective skills, as well as their extensive knowledge of colors and shapes to work, chicks Dirt, Sweetie, Poppy, and Sugar are on the case. Their mission: find out what this big, scary thing is and neutralize its terroristic threat to their home, family and friends!
Cronin’s chapter book is a refreshingly silly story, appropriately and plentifully illustrated with silly art by Cornell.

I never read this as a kid and I'm sorry I didn't. It's delightful! Funny and clever, but nothing age-inappropriate. The characters are great and the mystery is surprisingly well-thought-out. I got this for my nephew but I might buy more just so I can read the next silly mystery adventure!
