A farmer finds a large egg in his field. He asks each of his hens to hatch it before finding his oldest hen is willing because her nest is empty. The large and ungainly chick hatches and is named Richard. Richard is actually a baby eagle but spends his days growing up as a chicken, learning to peck and scratch at the ground.
For all of us, big and small, Richard the Chicken Eagle is a story about discovering who we really are and how high we can fly.
