    About this ebook

    Now an animated series on Disney Junior!

    The Chicken Squad is back for their third (mis)adventure, this time facing off with whatever’s hiding in a mystery box in the backyard. A hilarious chapter book in what has been called “a lip-bitingly funny series” (School Library Journal) by the bestselling author of Click, Clack, Moo and Diary of a Worm.

    Our fluffy, fearless young detectives are back. There’s a new cage in the yard, and the Chicken Squad is determined to figure out just who this is in it. Because whatever it is, it’s definitely up to no good. Equipped with the latest surveillance gear—which apparently includes copious amounts of marshmallows—the chicks venture into the wild to get answers. Let’s just hope they can beat that giant raincloud that’s closing in…because everyone knows that chickens can’t swim!

      The next adventure of the chicks. This time we see them on a stake out. They are funny as they prepare for the stake out then do it. Their observations are wild. Sugar doesn't let the facts stand in the way of her theory. Dirt is more realistic and they all need to pay more attention to Sweetie. Again another fun romp with the chicks and Momma to straighten them out.

    Into the Wild - Doreen Cronin

    Introductions

    Welcome to the yard!

    The name is John Joseph Tully; J. J. for short. I was a search-and-rescue dog for seven years, but my days of dangerous missions and daring rescues are behind me. Sure, I miss being a hero, but Barbara’s backyard is an okay kind of place once you get used to it. Everybody knows the rules—and everybody follows ’em. Except for the chickens, and the neighbor who likes to run his power saw a little too early in the morning. Luckily, somebody keeps chewing through his extension cord—but I don’t know anything about that.

    As for the chickens, I found them on the clothesline this morning, blowing in the wind between the socks and the pillowcases. Here they are:

    Dirt: Short, yellow, fuzzy

    Real Name: Peep

    Specialty: Foreign languages, math, colors, computer codes

    Sugar: Short, yellow, fuzzy

    Real Name: Little Boo

    Specialty: Breaking and entering, interrupting

    Poppy: Short, yellow, fuzzy

    Real Name: Poppy

    Specialty: Watching the shoe (will explain later)

    Sweetie: Short, yellow, fuzzy

    Real Name: Sweet Coconut Louise

    Specialty: None that I can see

    How did you get up there? I asked them.

    "Wouldn’t you love to
