A true tale about the magical meeting of a cat and her person told in 72 full-color illustrations in a rustic, cartoon, doodle, collage style. A cat allergy sets the stage for this colorful romp in which a cat named Chicken finds her way into the arms and affection of TJ, an artist in search of adventure and meaning. The story suggests that divine intervention brought them together and layers this theme with the restlessness of youth and the search for love and belonging; the joy and pain of birthing art and new life; the mysterious elements of the human experience; and finally, the acceptance that souls must move on. In a storyline that ranges from funny to emotional, sweet to silly, thoughtful to mystical, readers travel with TJ and Chicken between coasts, encountering a diverse collection of friends along the way. A hybrid graphic novel/picture book, Chicken appeals to children and to all who believe in a creative approach to life and the magic of synchronicity; who are drawn to creative nonfiction and autobiographical comics; and who love reading and discussion with their kids. Rich in intelligence, humor, and educational tidbits, Chicken is for anyone who has ever had a soul connection with a pet, most especially a cat.
