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.

Reimagining Narrative Therapy Through Practice Stories and Autoethnography takes a new pedagogical approach to teaching and learning in contemporary narrative therapy, based in autoethnography and storytelling. The individual client stories aim to paint each therapeutic meeting in such detail that the reader will come to feel as though they actually know the two or more people in the room. This approach moves beyond the standard narrative practice of teaching by transcripts and steps into teaching narrative therapy through autoethnography. The intention of these 'teaching tales' is to offer the reader an opportunity to enter into the very 'heart and soul' of narrative therapy practice, much like reading a novel has you enter into the lives of the characters that inhabit it. This work has been used by the authors in MA and PhD level classrooms, workshops, week-long intensive courses, and conferences around the world, where it has received commendations from both newcomer and veteran narrative therapists. The aim of this book is to introduce narrative therapy and the value of integrating autoethnographic methods to students and new clinicians. It can also serve as a useful tool for advanced teachers of narrative practices. In addition, it will appeal to established clinicians who are curious about narrative therapy (who may be looking to add it to their practice), as well as students and scholars of autoethnography and qualitative inquiry and methods.
