David Ezra Stein
Beaky Barnes: Egg on the Loose
(Penguin Workshop Jan. 19, 2021)
The man wanted an egg.
The woman wanted a business.
The chicken? Well, the chicken just wanted some respect.
What happens when their stories collide? Caldecott Honor winner David Ezra Stein takes readers on a slapstick journey in his debut graphic novel!
All the policeman wanted was an egg to go in his sandwich, so he heads to the cafe. The problem? The town is entirely out of eggs, and the local chef is panicked. Luckily, he spots a lovely duo having lunch: a woman and a chicken. It's his lucky day. But when the woman and chicken have a fight over an offensive business arrangement (chicken-pulled coach service, anyone?), chaos ensues. With a chicken on the run, and a policeman and woman in hot pursuit, three stories emerge with hilarious results!
With laugh-out-loud madcap comedy on every page, David Ezra Stein's (Caldecott Honor winner of Interrupting Chicken) signature humor is on full display in this debut graphic novel!
