The Little Red Hen: An Old Fable

32 pp. | August | October, 2006 | Trade ISBN 0-87483-795-2 $16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Susan Gaber. "A little Red Hen lived in a house, / with a frisky dog, a cat, and a mouse." This retelling of the classic story about the hard-working hen who teaches her lazy friends a lesson has an unusual, lilting rhythm. The work benefits from Gaber's colorful, folksy, gently humorous pastel illustrations, modernized with subtle cut-paper effects.
