Review Quotes:
"Chickens are among the most abused animals on the planet and rarely experience the compassion they deserve. Mistreating other animals undermines our humanity, while kindness benefits us all. Chickens Are Animals, Too! is a delightful and inspiring book that I hope will encourage people to recognize that chickens, like other animals, have feelings and that their lives matter."
-Gene Baur, president and co-founder of Farm Sanctuary
