The Fox and the Hen

Oh, no! Henrietta Hen laid her very first egg today—but sly Red Fox has tricked her into giving it to him!  And now he plans to gobble it all up.

But Henrietta doesn’t want her precious egg boiled, poached, scrambled, or fried.  Whatever will she do? Together, Henrietta and her friends on the farm hatch a cunning plan to fool Red Fox--and save her egg from becoming an omelet. 

A wittily told tale, beautifully enhanced by Éric Battut’s charming and earthy illustrations.
