Little Red Hen by Philemon Sturges

5.0

Children LOVE this book. I have yet to have a student that Sunday like this story. The language has predictable parts for the children to "read" and also has rich vocabulary that children need to be exposed to. It's a bit silly and catches student attention. At the end of this story the hen shares the pizza even though the others didn't help create it. Afterwards, her friends help her to do the dishes. I like this story's alternate ending to the Little Red Hen books by showing that kindness and forgiveness can be a better choice than revenge or punishment.
