Tale of Henrietta Hen

In the tradition of early American animal stories, Arthur Scott Bailey crafts a charming portrait of Henrietta Hen, a spirited heroine whose days on the farm are anything but ordinary. From early morning egg-laying competitions with the other hens to slippery encounters with the fox who covets her, Henrietta navigates farm life with a combination of wit, nerve, and perfectly-timed clucks. The narrative moves with gentle humor and quiet suspense as our feathered protagonist faces the small dangers and daily dramas of country living. Young readers will find a kindred spirit in this bold, independent hen who solves problems with her wits and never backs down from a challenge. A warm, wholesome adventure that has been delighting children for nearly a century.
