READER'S RESPONSE APPROACH by John Noel Sambilloza

​

      The argument of Kiko and his brother started when they encounter a peculiar chicken. Kiko was claiming that it was a rooster while the other brother would say it was a hen. Even their parents argue about the controversial chicken and they even consult other people just to know the real thing about the chicken. They even decided to let the chicken fight at the cockpit but a strange incident happened that the chicken did a love dance against its opponent. The decision was a fair match but the people at cockpit who were watching had a riot. The two boys immediately got the chicken and went home, but it suddenly laid an egg.
      We could also see the curiosity of the two boys that they really wanted to know the mystery behind the chicken. They were very interested to discover the truth on the peculiar chicken. Even the two boys fought about the chicken they still respect each other and both would like to prove and justify their own opinion.
We can also encounter this story on elementary and even in high school books. As I encounter it several times ago, I still have a strange feeling whether the chicken was a rooster or a hen. The writer probably made a story that will have a hanging ending.
