Description

Chicken, Pig, and Cow have always gotten along welluntil the day Girl builds a big city out of blocks. Thinking something is missing, Chicken makes a leaf statue. Now the city is perfect. Pig loves zipping and zooming around the city. Chicken warns him to be careful, but Pig is having too much fun to listen. Then the inevitable happens: Pig zooms right into Chickens statue, destroying it. Chicken is furious! Pigs attempts to fix the statue only make matters worse. In the end, he demolishes the entire city. Realizing what a mess hes made, Pig hides while Chicken, Cow, and Dog rebuild the city. After a nap, Pig feels better and returns to apologize to his friends. They forgive him and invite him to join them in putting the finishing touches on the city. As with all the books in this popular series, Chicken, Pig, Cows First Fight offers young children a gentle message about teamwork and cooperation.
