If you aren't familiar with Sloane Tanen's books featuring her signature chicks, check them out. You're are in for a treat. I think they are "crazy-delicious," and I can't get enough.
Her latest book, Hatched (Bloomsbury), due out April 3, tackles the embarrassing, mundane, and just plain not-fun parts of pregnancy and childbirth with Tanen's humorous take on the subject and her chicks as the "stars."
Sloane Tanen’s work has been exhibited in a number of shows and can be found in private and corporate collections in Manhattan, Boston, San Francisco and Los Angeles. She received her BA from Sarah Lawrence College and holds graduate degrees in literary theory from NYU and in art history from Columbia University. But more importantly, she was John Hughes' inspiration for Mia Sara's Ferris Bueller character. (As we all know, her name in the movie is...Sloane.)
Check out Hatched, if only to see the horror on a poor little chick's face after learning that she has pooped during childbirth. In front of her sorority sisters.
