The travel memoir “I Give Seven Chicken”: And Other Travel Experiences in China was published by Lulu publishing company in September of 2007. This nonfiction book shares the experience of an American traveler who visited China in 2001. The author of the travel journal, Laura Stone, was born and raised in Vanceburg, which is a small town located in the Ohio River Valley of Northeastern Kentucky. The following is a description of the book as it appears on the back cover:

“Whether you're currently planning a trip to Beijing or dabbling with the idea of visiting the Great Wall during your lifetime, Laura Stone's travel memoir, is a must read. "I Give Seven Chicken": And Other Travel Experiences in China, provides readers with a sense of how it actually feels for American tourists to be immersed into Chinese culture. While most published works available on China provide only factual travel information, this personal journal includes insightful stories that intimately describe Chinese culture through Western eyes. From being surprised by unwelcome "table buddies" at McDonald's to adjusting to Chinese "squatty potties," the shared encounters are side-splittingly enlightening. Plus, find out why "seven chicken" is not such a good offer! Most definitely, the events recorded in this book document a hilarious culture clash of West meets East!”

The book was printed in English, and it is 215 pages in length. The ISBN number is 978-1430310013. This was the first book published by Laura Stone, who also serves as a full-time elementary art teacher. Because the book was published by an on-demand publishing company, it is primarily available through online bookstores such as Amazon and Barnes and Noble’s virtual storefront.
