About
"Paisley is a tidy pig and a foodie who refuses to eat slop. He dreams of becoming a food critic. Peck the cockerel chick is not a morning person and doesn't want to be the farm alarm clock! Despite being mocked by other farm animals for being different, the two friends stick together and stay true to their dreams--which lands them in amusing and unlikely situations. When Turnip, the well-read barn mouse, tells Paisley and Peck that chickens evolved from dinosaurs, Peck is delighted! He might not have to become a rooster, after all--instead, he wants to grow up to be a Ty-rooster-saurus rex! With the help of Turnip and Paisley, Peck trains to become a dinosaur. But when he takes his new "career" too seriously, Turnip and Paisley realize they might have created a monster. Peck has gone Jurassic, causing "T. wreckage" and waking everybody at dawn with raucous rawrs (an attempt to incorporate a rooster's wake-up duties into his dino aspirations). Turnip and Paisley hatch a plan to convince Peck that dinosaurs can also be smiling, friendly, and even musical--like the star of the "Franny the Friendly Dinosaur" TV show, which they watch through the farmhouse window. To their delight, Peck picks up this new approach with enthusiasm. But before long, Paisley realizes they've created a different kind of monster ... one that can't stop singing the Franny the friendly dinosaur theme song. With lots of laughs and a heartfelt message about being true to yourself, Paisley and Peck is a winning first installment in a series about a pig and a chick who grapple with the self-discovery, rebellion, and awkwardness that comes with growing up"--
