Boys and girls will flock to Warren, a quirky chicken who wants to find his inner greatness.
Warren, a bespectacled chicken, is bored with the everyday chicken routine: peck, cluck, feed; peck, cluck, feed. Same old, same old. There must be more to life, no? And there must be more to Warren. He leaves the farm to discover what makes him special—and with the help of an unhatched egg and a snarky, hungry rat, he just might get some answers.
Filled with simple text, speech balloons, and engaging illustrations, this easy-to-follow story is a blend between a picture book and a chapter book, making it an ideal bridge for independent readers.

From Booklist
Bespectacled Warren is bored by his fellow chicks, who only peck chick feed and peep. He strikes out looking for adventure to prove how extraordinary he really is, and in the course of six chapters, he finds a conniving rat, an egg he adopts as his superhero sidekick, and definitive proof that he is no ordinary chicken at all. Dillard allows her clever tale to unfold in both sentences and cartoon panels. This combined approach amplifies Warren’s wry observations of his surroundings and peers, such as the egg, the rat, a duck, and a hungry fox. The brightly hued illustrations depict a wide variety of emotion and clever props, like the fox’s suspicious chicken cookbook and the duck’s coaching whistle, which looks remarkably like his own hat. There’s even a bilingual pun, along with a handful of silly food jokes. The simple text, usually only appearing in one or two sentences, is easy enough for beginning readers. Warren has all the imagination of Rebecca Purcell’s Super Chicken! (2013) but with some added sly sophistication, too. Grades 2-4. --Francisca Goldsmith
Review
Warren, the self-important chicken of the title, doesn’t realize that Millard the rat is flattering him because he’s considering eating Warren for dinner. “I think I might be a special chicken!” Warren confides. Millard gushes right back: “It is possible you could even be... Chicken Supreme!” Fortunately, Warren spots Millard’s cookbook, 1001 Recipes for Chicken, and when he discovers that Millard has plans for the rest of the flock, he gets to be the superhero he’s always dreamed of being. Dillard (Perfectly Arugula) has a solid grasp of the possibilities of sequential art, drawing panels that break up physical processes like learning to fly (where Warren runs into some trouble) and following Warren as he trudges over a hill, ruminating about his failure to warn the flock. Warren’s sidekick, an egg who eventually hatches, is the story’s sweetest surprise: “Is this farm the whole world or is there more?” the chick asks. “Did you know that I’d be so yellow and fuzzy?” A good-humored story that nicely blends picture book, chapter book, and graphic novel elements. Ages 6–9. Agent: Lori Nowicki, Painted Words. (Feb.) (Publishers Weekly)
This is a story that keeps interrupting itself.
A few pages into the comic, the narration is drowned out by sound effects. A flock of chicks keeps squawking for two pages straight. It happens right in the middle of a sentence: “They pecked all day long. EVERY SINGLE DAY. It drove Warren…Peep! Peck! Peck! Peck! / CRAZY.” (Eight nearly identical panels labeled Sunday through Sunday show four chicks peeping and pecking, as Warren looks on with increasing exasperation.) This is, presumably, supposed to be an amusing, postmodern device, but mostly it’s just an annoyance. In fairness, it’s supposed to be annoying. Warren hates the daily routine on the farm. He says, “I’ve had enough pecking and peeping….I am MORE than just an ORDINARY CHICKEN.” Warren becomes a sort of poultry superhero, rescuing the others from Millard the rat, who has invited them all to a barbecue. Large sections of the plot may feel familiar. The book feels much like the film Chicken Run, for example. But the story isn’t the point. The point is the jokes, which are terrible and brilliant in equal measure. When Warren bumps into an egg, he says, “OEUF!”
The simple line drawings are charming. The text is a matter of taste. It will be a hit with fans of borscht-belt humor. Everyone else may be driven…CRAZY. (Graphic fiction. 6-9) (Kirkus)
Life on the farm stifles Warren, who tires of all the repetitive pecking day after day and declares himself “more than just an ordinary chicken!” His dreams are aided and abetted by sinister Millard the rat, who’s licking his chops as he dubs Warren “Chicken Supreme.” When Warren realizes that Millard’s celebratory chicken barbecue is going to feature the coop members as entrees rather than guests, Warren tries to warn them and heroically—and accidentally—saves the day. Dillard has a light hand in this easy reader, touching with gentle absurdity on the desire to be extraordinary and adding in some amusing details (Warren, for instance, befriends an egg). Unfortunately, the plot meanders off into strange directions (chicken flying lessons suddenly appear) and loses momentum, and the dénouement involves too many devices and not enough punch. The digital illustrations have a tidy perkiness, with trim lines and simple backgrounds; with its frequent panel sequences and speech bubbles, the layout resembles an airy graphic novel. The easygoing layout and friendly charm of the dialogue may still appeal to early readers, who may appreciate the hint that subsequent adventures are to come. DS

A Great Read!
By Wendy A. Durocher
A one night fun read for a skilled second grader or average third grader. Also, a good read for advanced first graders.
Warren is one lovable chicken who can't help but want to stand out from the rest of the chickens in yard. He is so eager to be special that it takes a while for him to realize the true intent of the rat. Warren isn't so easily fooled by a Fox who comes along at the end of the story. Written in a graphic novel style and with chapters, the book is sure to make young readers feel big. A great book for tracking text, using expression and making inferences. Also a great example of a character changing. Enjoy this fun book in the classroom or at home. My son closed the book and said, is there a second book about Warren?

Love Warren!
By L. K. Messner
I still remember when my daughter and I read our first graphic novel in Jennifer and Matthew Holmes’ BABYMOUSE series six or seven years ago. We read all of them together, passed them back and forth, and laughed like crazy. There are just a handful of other graphic novels for this age group that share that kind of specialness (Jarrett Krosoczka’s LUNCH LADY series among them) so I was thrilled to see a charming newcomer – Sarah Dillard’s spunky EXTRAORDINARY WARREN: A SUPER CHICKEN.
I’d seen some of Sarah’s early art for this book at a retreat we both attended a while back, so when she asked if I’d like to review the final version, I jumped at the chance, and I’m so glad that I did.
Warren is a chicken who’s tired of the same old clucking and scratching and pecking. But none of the other chickens understand why. (As a kid who grew up in a small town, boy could I relate to this!). So he sets off to find something more, and like so many of us small-town kids with big dreams, finds himself in a bit of danger, even though he doesn’t realize right away that the hungry, double-speaking rat he meets intends to have chicken for dinner. (“Chicken SUPREME!” Warren says proudly.) The young chicken also finds a mysterious egg, too, and along the way discovers that he really is an extraordinary friend.
I love the way this book balances the playful art of a picture book with the character development and story arc of a chapter book. Its bright illustrations blended with just the right amount of text will have great appeal for kids who still love picture books but also want to start tackling chapters. Hand it to your BABYMOUSE and LUNCH LADY fans who need another great character to love.
