When she was six years old, the American writer Flannery O'Conner taught a chicken to walk backward.

Sounds like a story!!

Not really. I was wearing shorts and sitting in a leather chair. I don't have air conditioning in my house. Getting up from the chair can get quite painful if you've parked yourself too long!!

He is quite intrigued by this since he is talking about it on Facebook too. Tru do you think maybe you would like to teach a chicken to walk backward too?

First of all, you need a chicken.......and that means a live chicken cause a dead one will never walk backwards.

Well I found out why she taught the chicken to walk backward, so it wouldn't cross the road.
