Little Chick

(3) PS Illustrated by Anita Jeram. In three affectionate vignettes, patient Old-Auntie hen skillfully guides Little Chick through potential disappointments when her carrot won't grow, her kite won't fly, and she can't stretch high enough to catch the night sky's first star. Suffused with gentle humor and tenderness, the simple text and delicate pencil and watercolor illustrations in springtime shades have a perfect rapport.
