Cornelius just wanted to earn some quick cash. How hard could it be to chicken‑sit his aunt’s constipated hen – a bird who’s never worked out how to lay an egg?
Instead, Cornelius ends up in a bubbling hot tub of trouble involving high‑tech security, a possible operation involving a meat cleaver, and a romantic rooster who thinks he’s Romeo and God’s gift to chickens.
Can Cornelius escape this feather‑brained body‑switch disaster, or is he destined to be remembered forever as one giant dumb cluck?

Meet the Author
Roly Nutkins writes funny middle-grade adventures for kids who love chaos, gross humour, and disastrous decisions.
Behind the pen name is a children’s author obsessed with fast‑paced stories about kids who make disastrous choices and somehow survive them. Cornelius and his body‑swap catastrophes are just the beginning. When he isn’t dreaming up goose attacks, medieval mix‑ups, or Christmas calamities, he can usually be found avoiding chores, eating too many snacks, and wondering if he should finish one story before starting the next.
