Howard Rooster by Lynn Elam Bonge
Howard looks mad, but he really isn’t – he’s just intimidated by all the women he’s surrounded by. He’s part of the farm animal group created by Lynn Elam Bonge. Per Bonge, “he is so funny to look at and he will be sure to be a hit wherever you decide to hang him. He’s rather sweet on Edna Mae but he’ll never admit it. He likes to rule by intimidation, but he can be a softie when Edna Mae is around. (She knows who really rules the roost!) He will look great wherever you decide to hang him and he makes a great companion with the other poultry characters – like Edna Mae, Dave, Maybelline, Abner, Harold and Betty Lou.”
Please take the time to discover the artwork of Lynn Elam Bonge and her menagerie of friends. You will be happy you did!
