When tiny Blueberry hatches late and finds herself alone on a Caribbean island, she expects nothing but trouble. What she doesn't expect is Marmalade?a cautious, speckled chick wandering on her own?and the unlikely friendship that saves them both.
Together, the two chicks navigate a world full of hazards: bully hens who guard their territory, a fruit vendor with a box and a bad idea, and a moonlit beach raid by chicken pirates that only Blueberry and Marmalade have the nerve to stop. Bold where Marmalade is careful, small where the world is large, Blueberry keeps charging forward?and Marmalade keeps showing up when it matters most.
A sun-soaked adventure full of humor, heart, and two unforgettable characters who prove that the best kind of bravery is the kind you find for someone else.
For readers ages 8?12 who love animals, adventure, and stories about friendship that sticks.
