Have You Seen My Egg? by Andrew Fairchild and Lisa Rojany is an adorable story for children that will encourage them to listen to their hearts and not to give up on following their dreams. Red the rooster always has the same dream and he feels it is real. He knows no one believes him and the hens think laying eggs is a hen’s job and not that of a rooster. Red decides to go in search of his missing egg. He searches everywhere and runs into many farm animals that are also eager to help him find his egg. Will Red the rooster find his egg and see his dream becoming real?

The story conveys a very strong message to readers; that of following their hearts and never to give up in life, no matter what obstacles they face. Red’s character has been portrayed well; he is strong and his refusal to give up in life, despite the problems he faces, is indeed an encouraging lesson for readers. The illustrations are bold, colorful, and endearing, like the story, and they breathe life into the scenes and characters, giving a good pace and movement to the story. The story also touches on the topic of single parenting in a subtle way. It is a good book for bedtime story-telling and to read out in classrooms to motivate children to never give up on their dreams and to meet all the hurdles in life head on.
