Daisy is her owner, Mei Mei's favorite hen. One night she accidentally floats down a river and gets lost. She has some adventures and we're anxious to see if she makes her way back home. Set in China.

Mei Mei prides herself on having happy hens so when one of them disappears, she is devastated.

I appreciate Jan Brett stepping out of her Scandinavian comfort zone but I prefer her classics. As always, her illustrations are wonderful and immensely detailed. We love to inspect every page for tiny details we would otherwise miss out on.

I love Jan Brett's books! The illustrations are so amazing, and there's so much to look at! All the little vignettes telling their side stories in the edges and corners of the pages...
The stories are also wonderful.
Poor Mei Mei. Poor Daisy.
But there's always a good end. :-) I'm glad Daisy learned to stand up for herself :-)

BTW, don't miss the animal shaped mountains, there are all the 12 Chinese Zodiac signs there :-)
