![]() I’m a children’s book writer and illustrator. (Though I do also love the Emberley’s work, and I will be sure to check out this book.) I love your wonderful blog, and I apologize for butting in with a non sequitur comment here. ![]() The art will project well to a large crowd too. It perfectly matches the tone of the text.Ī winning version of this classic tale, this may just be the best read aloud version I have seen. Each bird has his or her own little sound that they make, from Chicken Little’s EEP! to Loosey Goosey’s ONK! And take a look at that cover, Emberley’s art is zany, colorful and almost kaleidoscopic at times. ![]() What makes this book a great version of the story is that the words are kept to a minimum and even with those few words there is a lot of humor. Let me reassure you that here he does, so it is fine to use even with sensitive toddlers and preschoolers. The only question with any new edition of the story is whether Chicken Little lives on in the end. ![]() He gathers a group of feathery friends who believe him and then meets up with the fox who knows just how to take advantage of the opportunity presented to him. Bonked on the head with an acorn, loses his grip and heads out to tell everyone of the horror that the sky is falling. ![]() Chicken Little by Rebecca Emberley and Ed Emberley. ![]()
