Have you ever used sidewalk chalk?  You know, the big pieces of chalk that you can use on driveways and sidewalks to draw pictures.  Well, when Nick, Loretta Fischetti, Bruno Ugg, and Henrietta, the 6-foot tall 266 pound chicken, have come across some amazing sidewalk art.  The drawings are reproductions of famous paintings that hang in museums.  The kids get so excited about the sidewalk art that they decide to give it a try.  Is it as easy as they think it will be?
