A country move, an unusual discovery

Ten-year-old Florence Fortescue would rather be back in the city with her best friend. Her new home brings an unexpected complication: after eating a glowing green egg, she can see a flock of ghost chickens that her parents can’t. Florence’s ambition to become a journalist gives her a way to investigate—and perhaps to make her case for returning home. The opening book in a middle-grade series combines a family move, a supernatural mystery, and comic chickens, with Florence’s wish to be heard driving the setup.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Middle-grade readers who enjoy humorous fiction with a supernatural twist

  • Children drawn to aspiring journalist characters and animal-centered oddities
