Waiting for Chicken Smith

David Mackintosh
'Every year, I stay in the same cabin at the beach with my family, and every year Chicken Smith's here too, with his Dad and his dog, Jelly. But this year, something's different.'

As we hang on the words of the narrator, we learn of the legendary Chicken Smith and the beachside town that has been the backdrop to their school-holiday adventures for years. But will Chicken Smith turn up this year? Or will a friendship of a different kind blossom. 

A story about childhood friendship, the inevitability of change and the magic of anticipation. A 2019 CBCA Notable Book of the Year - Picture Book of the Year
