The Little Red Hen
Little Red Hen is a time-tested cautionary tale about how we reap what we sow. When the hen asks a cat, dog, and mouse for help planting some wheat, she gets no takers: "'Not I ' said the cat. 'Not I ' said the dog. 'Not I ' said the mouse." They won't water, cut, or grind the wheat . . . or help bake a cake with it, either. So guess who eats the cake by herself in the end? Caldecott Honor artist Paul Galdone's delightfully detailed ink and wash illustrations--packed with charming details--add plenty of sly humor to the well-loved story that not only offers a sage message but also shows children what it takes to make a cake from the ground up Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Galdone, PaulPublished: 03/21/2011Publisher: Clarion BooksISBN: 9780547370187Pages: 48Weight: 0.62lbsSize: 8.24h x 8.25w x 0.39d
