Ten-year-old Chickie Jurin wants to be the chicken expert of the world. When her family inherits a Montana ranch, she is thrilled to leave town and have a chicken coop she can call her own. Not everyone in her family is excited to live in the middle of nowhere, though. Chickie's career-minded mother and her siblings: know-it-all Kate, feather-pulling Tom, and perfect Steven prefer life in town. Will gallons of Zamboozie Stew and the help of an eccentric sagebrush farmer convince her family that the ranch has space for everyone's dreams? Or will Chickie's dream get smashed like an egg in a jean pocket?​

Chickie Jurin returns, but this time she needs to find her missing hen before a hungry wild animal does. But she's too busy keeping her troublesom little brother and sister from drowning in the ranch cistern. Meanwhile, Mom braves the muddy roads to her job interview at the country school. Aunt Tabitha makes life unbearable for everyone as rain continues to fall and hundreds of toads appear. When Chickie hatches a plan for a toad rodeo in her chicken yard to entertain her siblings so they'll stay away from the cistern, the outcome forces her to reconsider her dreams. Will she continue to pursue a future as the chicken expert of the world? Or will she give up her coop and hope her parents move back to town?
