One night Chicken had a dream about buried treasure—a treasure trove of corn.
And the corn is always sweeter on the other farm . . . or at least that’s what Chicken thinks.
His friend George agrees.
Hopefully they can find it once they cross the road.
Will Chicken’s corny treasure be all it’s cracked up to be?

“Corny one-liners drive this slapstick fantasy, as two featherbrained hens cross the road to follow their dreams absurd, but somehow endearing.” —Parenting
"O’Malley’s verbal hijinks and rib-tickling artwork will provide readers with 'egg-stremely egg-ceptional' giggles." —Publishers Weekly, starred review "A frittata of fun." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
