Newbery generator

It's been a while since I checked in with the Newbery generator.

The Pink Cloud of Poppy Allerdon

In the beginning, a depressed teenage girl is diagnosed with Crohn's disease after the spread of a new disease that makes your head fall off. Things seem to be looking up when she befriends a boy with a tragic past. But when her new friend reveals their tragic past as the parent of eight children who died in an epidemic, she learns a valuable lesson about pie crust and that con artists ruin people's lives.

It's from the manga Planet Ladder. Literally all I remember about it is that it has a giant mechanical chicken and a disease that makes your head fall off.

And there's a prince who's very repressed because he's never been touched by a real person, having been raised by robots so that he wouldn't catch the disease that makes everybody's heads fall off!

That's all I remember other than the giant robot chicken.
