Review # 1 was written on 2018-10-30 00:00:00 Kevin Murphy This retelling of "Chicken Little" takes the classic story and gives it a small twist. Here, we get a hysterical chicken who jumps to conclusions about their large friend (thinking he's an elephant, a squirrel, and an umbrella, among other things). Each time, the big chick proves her and the other chickens wrong, and eventually saves them all from a common enemy. The illustrations are cute and kids will probably like the story. But the e-book edition I read was terrible. Some of the illustrations include text that was part of the story, so it was really important to get the actual text in the right place. This edition didn't do that, which led to a bit of confusion. There were also some lapses in punctuation, which I'm guessing are also an artifact from the conversion process. The book is probably fine in a physical format (so I'm not going to take any points off for that), but it's something to be aware of if you're looking at getting this as an e-book.

I particularly liked the very small and not very bright chicken. ***"Chicken Little" retold in a coop filled with the stupidist chickens ever. Even stupider than actual chickens can be. I hate chickens for anything except food, but I love writers who make me laugh at stupidity. Library copy.
