A Chicken Named Coffee: A Story About Being Different

By Julie Bock

On a quiet prairie farm lives a little hen named Coffee. Life in the flock is good - until suddenly, it isn't.

When Coffee, a real hen, on a real farm, begins to look different from the other hens, her flock mates turn on her - pecking, chasing, and leaving her feeling confused and alone. She didn't change on the inside. Why couldn't they see that?

But sometimes the best things find you when you least expect them.

A Chicken Named Coffee is a warm, gently illustrated picture book about belonging, resilience, and unexpected friendship - told through the true story of a real hen. With real photos turned watercolor and a quietly hopeful ending, this is a book for every child who has ever felt left out - and every grown-up reading it aloud.

Perfect for ages 4-8, classroom read-alouds, and family conversations about kindness and bullying. And how it's ok for things to change.
