Kate compromises her own values and risks getting herself into serious trouble as she launches a secret campaign to protect her brother long enough for him to find his place in the family – and in the world – again.\n\nAs a follow-up to Red Kayak, Cheating for the Chicken Man brings J.T., Kate, and Brady Parks together again as they struggle with the complicated issues of fairness, friendship, and forgiveness.\n\n* \"Kate’s perspective is authentic. Especially for readers who enjoyed Red Kayak, this novel is an engaging choice that offers a different perspective on a tragic event.\" —School Library Connection, starred review\n\n\"Realistically presenting the situational rather than absolute nature of some difficult choices, this engrossing novel provides lots to ponder and discuss.\" —Kirkus Reviews\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Puffin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45115257684021,"sku":"ByrdShop_014242742X","price":315.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780142427422_cabf5ee0-8958-4ddd-8cd4-368be139232e.jpg?v=1781129407","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/cheating-for-the-chicken-man-9780142427422","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
