'A Chicken Called Hope is a story about what happens when you rely on hope alone.
'When faced with a challenge, Hope the chicken simply hopes for the best. The trouble is, as captain of the ship Courage, she needs more than hope to get her through the peaks and troughs of life on the high seas. But Hope only learns this lesson after Courage fails her and all hope seems lost. This is a story about being prepared for the worst and hoping for the best.' (Publication summary)
