"Chicken Little" by Rebecca Emberley is a charming retelling of the classic fable. The story follows Chicken Little, who, after being struck on the head by an acorn, believes that the sky is falling. In her panic, she rushes to tell the other animals, leading to a comical series of events as they join her in her fear. As they encounter various characters, their silly misadventure teaches a valuable lesson about hysteria, friendship, and the importance of checking facts before jumping to conclusions. Emberley’s vibrant illustrations add a delightful touch to this timeless tale. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
