What is The Summer Gang about?

Charley, Hannah, Izzie and Xa become the C.H.I.X., a daring new gang of friends who bond while caring for a coop of hens. They make promises to protect one another’s secrets, wear a feather and never eat chicken. Their friendship is tested when a group of troublesome boys lets the hens escape. As the girls race to round up their flock, they must outwit their rivals and prove that loyalty, courage and teamwork are stronger than any prank.
