Teaser Tuesday
Chicken Big
Written and illustrated by Keith Graves
You’ve heard the story of Chicken Little who runs through the woods shouting the sky is falling. This is a “spin-off.”
The story begins with a huge chick hatching from an enormous egg. The barnyard chickens are baffled. “What is it?” they cry. At first they declare it’s an elephant. Then it eats the acorn, and they are convinced it is a squirrel. Then in a rainstorm the big chick spreads its wings to keep them all dry. This is a comical retelling of the familiar story with a satisfying ending. Wonderful picture book for toddlers and up.

rain,” clucked the smaller chicken.
“I see what you are saying,” peeped
the smallest chicken. “Apparently he is an UMBRELLA!”
