King Rooster and Little Chicken
by Les C. Newvine
King Rooster and Little Chicken uses an animal family to explore themes of perseverance, bullying, unconditional love, and forgiveness.
Little Chicken experiences bullying and neglect from his father, King Rooster, and this children’s book shows readers not to judge others by their appearance as it also teaches that just because you don’t meet someone else’s standards does not mean you can’t be successful if you believe in yourself. The book touches on the isolation and loneliness that come from exclusion, just as it shows the courage it takes to stand up to people who have done us wrong.
