Saving the Farm

ebook

The third book in the Chook Chook series set against the backdrop of rural China
It's Chinese New Year, and for Mei and her family things are looking grim. It's been another bad harvest and a disappointing year for their farm. And now, the government is building a major freeway that will rip right through their village and tear their little farm apart. One by one, Mei's neighbors are convinced to sell their land and despite Ma's and stepfather Jin's best efforts to fight, it looks like their farm will be next. What can Mei and her beloved chickens, Little and Lo, do to save their farm and keep the family together? As the deadline for bulldozing draws near, villagers young and old will come to realize that it takes a village to save a farm.
