His mother was amazed when she saw the size of her newborn infant and realized that feeding him was going to cause problems. Magnus was a large mouse, a fearless mouse, a real powermouse. Fattened on patent Porker Pills. Hhe just grows and grows - and so do his problems.
***
Flightless, helpless and often, frankly, more than a little silly, chickens are no match for the cunning, merciless foxes stalking their coop. Or are they? Thanks to a careless farmer and generations of determined foxes, the chickens on Foxearth Farm have evolved into quick-witted, long-legged, high flying fox dodgers. Then, just a week after a vicious fox ambush in the water trough, three sisters are hatched. And Ransome, Sims and Jefferies are no ordinary chicks: they grow up determined to fight back.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
This book is now flying to the winner (or decoy) of "The Chocolate, Tea and Book" Rabck Sweepstake hosted by FireGirl. I hope you will enjoy the stories and help you relax. Sometimes we need to stop and taste children's books in order to feed our inner child. With this book and the other little suprises I would like to give a good occassion to enjoy this time! :D
The funny thing is I don't know who are you :), even if I know your real name, I didn't find your BC name in the letter that I got, so your getting JE will be a real suprise for me. At first I thought I wrote back to Firegirl, but I withdrew my intention, since now it is really interesting. :D I am so excited!!
