A farm can be a big, scary place for a chicken. Just like people, chickens want to be well cared for, protected, have something to eat every day, and feel special. The Coatsworths' Farm would be the perfect farm for a flock of chickens, if it wasn't for that horrible hawk, a pesky fox, and the fact that all of the chickens will have the same name. Who does that to a chicken?! The red-shouldered hawk and the fox don't care what the chickens are called. They just think of them as breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Strutting around the farm all day long sounds like a life of ease, but the chickens learn there is more to life than just sitting on the fence, watching the world go by. And once the chickens learn why they are called Doug, they are in for the adventure of their lives. They are on this farm for a reason, they are special, and there are chickens who need them. It all starts with a loving farmer and his grandson, a rooster like no other, and some neighbors in need.

Peggoty the pig feels ugly when the other animals tell her she needs fur, a mane, or feathers, but then she sees the farmer's baby and learns that there is also beauty in being hairless.

When the farm cat warns Runtling the pig of his approaching fate, he realises that the trip to market is one which he must avoid at all costs and he rushes off to warn his long-lost siblings of the danger. Together the thirteen pigs escape and make their way across country, learning all sorts of new things about themselves, about humans and about the world outside the farmyard. It seems that their troubles are over when they find an abandoned farm. Then the new owners take possession of their land and the pigs fear that their escape has been in vain. But Nick and Polly Faraway have strange, alternative ideas about farming and a lifestyle which may work to the benefit of pigs and humans. Maybe there can be a happy ending after all!
