Milo Neal's science fair project, the "complete life cycle of a link in the food chain", stars Henrietta, a chicken. But somehow Henrietta ends up on the bench of the South Middle School Rangers hockey team. The team is in a big slump and having Henrietta as their mascot seems to bring them all together.
Pretty soon the hockey season, the science fair, and even the chicken's future are all up in the air. Can they all be saved?
This story is told by a number of different characters - the hockey star, the class dweeb, the animal rights activist. I love their chicken humor, and I love the way everything turns out all right in the end. This Chicken doesn't Skate will have you laughing out loud with every page you turn.
