Paul Delaney: Jenny Peckles Lays Eggs With Speckles

Jenny Peckles Lays Eggs With Speckles is a funny, exuberant picture book written by Rachel Emily and packed with rhyme and wordplay. This gorgeous book is illustrated by Paul Delaney from West Cork and Paul will be here for a morning of drawing fun.

Jenny Peckles lays eggs with speckles. Featherly Botts lays eggs with spots. Sally McSquawk lays eggs that can TALK?! Hang on a minute…

Down on Old Worrall’s Farm, the hens are laying their eggs … and FAKING spots, stripes, sparkles and speckles. Why? Because they all want to BE IN THIS BOOK!

But it turns out spots, speckles and talking eggs aren’t what makes these chickens special. For this bunch of intrepid chickens, real life is FAR more exciting…
