Henny Penny and her friends are on their way to tell the king that the sky is falling when they meet a hungry fox
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
K - Grade 2-- Cause and effect are humorously apparent in this new edition of an old tale. When the acorn falls on Henny Penny's head, readers will know just where it's come from--two industrious squirrels busily gathering nuts in the trees overhead. (The same two squirrels are seen burying their wealth at the scene of Foxy Loxy's feast on the book's final page.) In similar fashion, Zimmermann extends and lightens this tersely told tale in page after page of colorful watercolor cartoons. Henny Penny and friends appear appropriately plump and foolish, each with a pot, pan, or other hastily acquired headgear slipping inelegantly over the eyes. Comical perspectives accentuate the foolishness, helping to take the sting out of the dear birds' inevitable end. Of the many versions of Henny Penny available, this delightful edition is truer than most to the spirit of the tale and likely to become a favorite. --Marcia Hupp, Mamaroneck Pub .
