The Chicken Who Loved Books by Angela Hunt

5.0

A friend who kept chickens once told me that she read to her chickens almost daily. She said they gathered round her and seemed calm and engaged with her. She said they really seemed to enjoy this special time . Now Angela Hunt has captured this idea into an engaging story of a young boy and his chickens. Henry reads to his chickens but then stops reading and becomes engrossed in a computer game ignoring his flock of friends. Little Red waits patiently for Henry to go back to his books but finally takes matters into his own wings !!! The value of reading and animal friends is clear here.
