来自首次出版图画书的作者和《纽约时报》畅销书插画家，针对谜语“鸡为什么要过马路？”提出了带讽刺意味的看法，赋予“另一边”全新的含义。喔喔喔！

“鸡为什么要过马路？”是一个诡异的双关语。这本元绘本对这个老笑话做了新的诠释，并将鸡的喜剧性提升到了新的水平。一只小雏鸡穿过马路，很快被一辆卡车压扁了。目睹的家禽们传来消息：小鸡被压死了，被派往另一个世界了，在那里，小鸡有一份工作，一份不受欢迎的工作，做一个吵闹的麻烦鬼。这只鸡的喙可能很弱，但鸡知道，吓唬人是不好的。毕竟，是有好鬼的，不是吗？在本书中，《纽约时报》畅销书《坏种子》系列的插画师创作了令人毛骨悚然的搞笑艺术，适合万圣节时阅读，让我们开始闹鬼吧!

From a debut picture-book author and a #1 New York Times best-

selling illustrator, a wry take on "Why did the chicken cross the road?” that gives a whole new meaning to “the Other Side.” Cock-a-doodle-BOO!

It’s punny. It’s spooky. It’s a meta picture book that puts a fresh spin on an old joke and elevates chicken comedy to ghastly new levels. A little spring chicken cr

osses the road but quickly gets flattened under a lorry. The barnyard beasts who’ve gone before break the news: now that Chicken’s fried – dispatched to the Other Side – Chicken has a job, an unwanted job, as a noisy trouble-

making ghost. This fowl may be weak in the beak, but Chicken knows that scaring people isn’t nice. There is such a thing as a friendly ghost, after all – isn’t there? Loaded with laughs and shivers, this Halloween-ready treat features ghoulishly funny art by the illustrator of the #1 New York Times best-

selling Bad Seed series. Let the haunting begin!
