This short fable explores themes of freedom vs captivity, reproductive rights, and motherhood through the eyes of a lovable, plucky chicken named Sprout. It is a quick read that I finished in one sitting and left me feeling satisfied and a little wistful.
Moderate: Animal death and Infertility
Sprout cannot lay eggs of her own so she adopts a duckling.
