Ami loves her chicken better than me. She calls her Bibi, I call her silly. Rani's mother loves Bibi the chicken more than her. At least that's what Rani thinks. That silly chicken gets all the attention, and Rani just can't stand it. Even worse, Bibi seems to know she's the favorite! But when Bibi disappears one afternoon, Rani realizes how sad her mother is. Will Rani's jealousy disappear, too? Set in rural Pakistan and illustrated with lively, expressive illustrations, this original take on sibling rivalry is hilarious and poignant at the same time.
What a wonderful book for young kids. Both our 4 year old and 2 year old cant get enough of this book and insist on reading it every night at bedtime. We look forward to more books from this author! The illustrations are great too!

This is a funny, sweet story with lovable characters (including the chicken). You can see the characters' personalities in the cover illustration. Each of Yunmee Kyong's illustrations is a beautiful painting which compliments the text. A lovely book!
