A celebration of girl power and community action, author Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen and illustrator Renée Kurilla’s picture book Chicks Rule! is the playful, diverse, victorious anthem chicks everywhere will love. All in step with wing in wing . . . Chicks can conquer anything! Nerdy Chick has been waiting all day for the Rocket Club meeting. But when she gets there, she finds a disturbing sign tacked to the door: “NO CHICKS ALLOWED!!!” Puzzled, then baffled, then just plain mad, Nerdy Chick sets out to change the rules. Along the way, she meets other chicks who are just like her: passionate and determined. From Soccer Chick to Science Chick and Wordy Chick to Yoga Chick, these chicks aren’t willing to take “NO” for an answer. They rally together, march to the barn at the center of town, and—when they hear “NO” once again—chart their own path forward (or, rather, up, up, and away!). “A fun and lively read-aloud about empowering girls, and a splendid example of what a community can accomplish when everyone is included.” —School Library Journal Also available:Chicks Rock!
