Chicken and Egg | Christine Back & Jens Olesen

This book of a nature study series explains each stage of a chicken's life with large colour photographs to supplement the text. The topic is explained in simple language with bold headings for very young readers and more detailed information for slightly older readers.

Photographs, drawings, and text on two different levels of difficulty follow the development of a chick embryo from the fertilization and laying of the egg to the time the chick hatches.
