As we began getting books into village reading rooms, as well as schools, we asked people what books they'd like.
"We'd like a book about 'Why do our chickens die?' was the first request we got. So here is a book about how to care for your chickens.
Chickens and their eggs are an important source of protein in Lao villages. This well-illustrated book provides detailed information about feeding chickens, protecting them, and keeping them healthy.
by Santisouk Phimkanya, illustrated by Somboun Keomanyvong
