一天早上，當 Henny Penny在吃早餐的時候，一顆玉米從天而降打到了牠的頭，於是牠便急急忙忙的拿著鍋子保護頭，急著要向國王報告這個消息，在進中碰到了鴨子、鵝，大家都跟在 Henny Penny的後頭要去向國王報告這個大消息，直到牠們遇到了狐狸，就再也沒有人看到牠們了，究竟發生了什麼事呢？牠們見到了國王了嗎？適合5歲以上兒童閱讀。“ The sky is falling! The Sky is falling,” said Henny Penny. “ I must go and tell the King.” The charming watercolor illustrations of Henny Penny and her feathered friends were inspired, in part, by Canadian artist H. Werner Zimmermann’s travels. Werner and his family were in Germany for a year, where he spent much of his time chasing chickens, roosters, ducks, geese and turkeys around the town where he lived. |
