The Homesick Chicken

The Homesick Chicken by Mary Graham Bonner follows a young chicken who spends a cheerful day with a turkey family after Mrs. Turkey takes him in to replace her lost chick. But when bedtime arrives and the turkeys fly up to roost in the trees, the chicken is left alone on the ground, small and miserable, longing for home. The story builds gently toward a moment of honest feeling — and a reunion that captures exactly why belonging means more than just being fed and cared for.
