Little Red Hen Big Book

The little red hen finds none of her lazy friends willing to help her plant, harvest, or grind wheat into flour, but all are eager to eat the bread she makes from it.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A little red hen grows grain, threshes wheat, bakes bread, and feeds her chicks—all by herself, without any help from her lazy friends. Young readers will laugh and learn a valuable lesson about teamwork from this classic tale!

This oversize edition (18 x 18") is perfect for sharing in a library or classroom.

Byron Barton's simple words, bold images, and imaginative use of colour have made his many picture books perennial favourites with young children. This retelling of the well-loved folktale The Little Red Hen continues to draw in preschoolers with its humour and bright primary colours.
