Editorial Reviews

About the Author

The author enjoys writing books that educate as well as delight her readers. The author graduated from Auburn University in 2006 with a degree in Zoology. She is an award winning educator, developing curriculum that brings ecology lessons alive for young children. She is very active in local ecology awareness programs, and is employed at the Louise Kreher Forest Ecology Preserve mentioned in the book. When she is not rescuing animals from the many things they can get into on their own, she and her husband are raising three children, who are as much or more interested in creatures as she is. While all the Samantha Stories are works of fiction they all start with an animal found in real life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Samantha Hatches the Chicken Egg July 30, 2012
By Granny
Format:Kindle Edition
FINALLY! Another book in the "Samantha Series"! And just as delightful, entertaining and educational as the first. What a joy to read aloud to my grandchildren as I did to my children. I thought we would stretch this book out over multiple visits, but they couldn't wait to know what happens next, so we pretty much read straight through! I chuckle as I remember some of the antics of my own children, and admire the wisdom of the Mom in these stories, as she teaches her girls and their friend about animals and nature, as well as some real life lessons!

Having been involved for many years with 4H this story touched me. I enjoyed the story line . It will be a good read to my grandchildren as we are getting 2 day old chicks today and they have to come from somewhere. This shows "the rest of the story".
