The Chicken Who Saved Us by @kristinjarvisadams ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been delaying writing this for a long time because I wanted to make sure I did this story justice. First off, this is a true story written by the mother of all chickens @kristinkarvisadams. Kristin is a super hero mom and on top of it all a beautiful writer. I am a sucker for people who are willing to lay out the darkest parts of their lives so others can understand, and Kristin did just that. This is a touching story of a boy named Andrew, who is autistic, and also developed a rare genetic mutation, T8M. This condition is very painful and can be life-threatening. Andrew has a difficult time explaining his pain, and only knows how to communicate it to his chicken, Frightful. This story shows how deep a mother’s love truly runs, and how this amazing chicken Frightful, saved Andrew’s life. You can clearly see how much Adam’s loves her son and daughter throughout each page of this book. I can not thank her enough for sharing her life with us, dark parts and all, to inspire others. This is one story I will never forget. And, I know this is her first book but, I selfishly hope she will be writing more in the future because the way this woman tells a story is truly a masterpiece!!!
