Books and Chickens

Yesterday I introduced you to the three new gals on the block.  Two of which are named from characters of some of my favorite books.

Shelby comes from Michael Lee West's novel, Mermaids in the Basement.

 Bitsy is found in Mad Girls in Love.

If you haven't read either of these books, you ought to.  With summer fast approaching, these books would be ideal to add to a summer reading list.  Then, go on and read the rest of West's books.  You'll be glad you did.
