  • Presidential chicken crossings from Washington to Biden
  • Literary versions from Jane Austen to Stephen King

With a witty introduction tracing the history of this beloved joke back to 1847, Thorne's collection builds to the ultimate question: Why did one thousand chickens cross the road? The answer might just surprise you... or not!

Warning: This book contains an excessive number of poultry puns and may cause spontaneous outbursts of groaning and eye-rolling. Listen at your own risk!
