Synopsis
“The delivery is Catskill perfect; readers will fall hard for the antics of this hapless pair.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review)
It’s time for the little red chicken’s bedtime story — and a reminder from Papa to try not to interrupt. But the chicken can’t help herself! Whether the tale is “Hansel and Gretel” or “Little Red Riding Hood” or even “Chicken Little,” she jumps into the story to save its hapless characters. When it’s the little red chicken’s turn to tell a story, will her yawning papa make it to the end without his own kind of interrupting? The charming 2011 Caldecott Honor Book is available in an abridged board book edition for the first time.

Review
The delivery is Catskill perfect; readers will fall hard for the antics of this hapless pair.
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
It doesn’t matter if you are a storytime librarian, classroom teacher or sleepy parent - Interrupting Chicken will have you matching giggles and gaffaws with your audience
—Bookends (Booklist blog)
Stein uses page turns dramatically to build tension, which is released each time the chicken interrupts and amends a fairy tale...illustrations are vivid and dramatic. Great fun for reading aloud.
—Booklist
This is one of the rare titles that will entertain both parent and child.
—School Library Journal
This tender iteration of a familiar nighttime ritual will be equally welcomed by fond parents and those children for whom listening to stories is anything but a passive activity.
—Kirkus Reviews
The colorful illustrations and humorous tone make this book an enjoyable independent read or as a read aloud.
—Library Media Connection
Vibrant art is offbeat and original like the story line that still manages a familiar ring for patient parents and participatory kids alike
—San Francisco Chronicle
This entire book is just as much fun as the title.
—Chicago Tribune
A papa chicken can't get a word in edgewise in the lighthearted Caldecott Honor winner that proves patience is a virtue.
