Our rating: 
A chicken crosses the road, beginning a hilarious chain reaction involving a burglar, an explosion, and stampeding cows.
Macaulay’s genius shines through brilliantly. The adults reading this book will enjoy it more than the children they are reading to. Make sure you look closely at the pictures for speech bubbles, goofy happenings, and the burglar hiding on most pages.
