Chicks!

---

Chicks! is an educational early science reader written by Sandra Horning, illustrated by Jon Goodell, and published by Random House under the Step into Reading series (Step 1: Ready to Read - A Science Reader). The book introduces young children to the life cycle and care of farm chickens, following a family as they receive baby chicks, feed them, build a coop, and watch them grow into full-grown hens that lay fresh eggs. Written with simple vocabulary, big type, and rhythmic repetition, the narrative combines basic biological concepts with beginner-friendly English text. For kindergarten (TK) students, this nonfiction reader serves as an ideal STEM and early literacy resource that builds reading confidence, observational skills, and foundational knowledge of animal development.
