(2) K-3 Bopped on the head by an acorn, this Chicken Little does rush off to tell the king that "the sky is falling." However, once Foxy Loxy has locked the whole crowd (Froggy Woggy, Natty Ratty, etc.) in his cellar, our chick turns clever hero. Byrd, much abetted by his elegantly detailed illustrations, upends both the classic tale's conventions and its cautionary message.
