The acclaimed children’s book author and illustrator retells the beloved fable of a hen who takes her friends on a misguided adventure.

Convinced the sky is falling, Henny Penny the hen gathers a band of gullible friends who decide they must march off and tell the king. But their misadventures take a frightening turn when they meet their end at the hands of a wily fox.

With its tongue-twisting rhymes, rich illustrations, and surprise ending, this funny and sad read-aloud book will make a great addition to any child's library of classics.

"A favorite nursery tale delightfully illustrated in strong line and color in Galdone's familiar and likable style."—Booklist
