Funny, accessible and relatable, Chook Doolan focuses on the concerns and interests of kids (mainly boys) aged five and over. The stories focus on friends, family, community and being brave. Gentler than other books available for emerging boy readers, they are great for developing emotional intelligence. Perfectly pitched for emergent readers with simple sentence structure, short chapters, black-and-white illustrations, large font and white space.
Chook Doolan doesn't want to play soccer. It's scary. He would rather play chess... Can Chook ever be brave enough to play soccer with the team?
