Midge, Pip, and Dot (The Loopy Coop Hens) are sitting under the apple tree when apples start to rain down upon them. The brave hens investigate, climbing a ladder to the top of the tree and discovering...gravity. Stoeke employs a minimum of words to invest her characters with a maximum of personality; acrylic illustrations eschew backgrounds for close-ups of hens, apples, tree, and action.
