The crazy career of a crazy chicken<br />
A chicken’s life - the touching story<br />
of a true artist who refuses to be<br />
sold out.<br />
The farmer has a very special chicken:<br />
When it swallowed its shadow, it laid<br />
black eggs.<br />
When the farm was covered by fog, he<br />
found little gray clouds in the nest. Every<br />
day the chicken lays something weird:<br />
footballs, apples, even light bulbs!<br />
No wonder it gets to the farmer’s head.<br />
He takes the chicken to a TV station.<br />
Nothing but disappointment awaits him:<br />
the chicken doesn’t lay anything but a<br />
large white egg!<br />
It’s been many years since Walter<br />
Schmögner last illustrated a picture<br />
book, but Heinz Janisch has created a<br />
magical picture book heroine that he<br />
couldn’t resist.<br />
Heinz Janisch is one of Austria’s most<br />
sought after author of children’s books.<br />
To date he has published more than thirty<br />
books for children and adults.<br />
His books are characterized by<br />
enchanting straightforwardness and<br />
astonishing esprit, by imaginativeness,<br />
sensitivity and subtleness.<br />
