Kids’ Storytime With Stephanie Shaw
April 15, 2023 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am
FreeHen insists on doing everything alone. When Fox comes calling, Hen’s friends start to worry… but should they? Hen isn’t a little chick anymore. She’s spread her wings and can get a job done just the way she likes it! She can grow wheat herself, she can wheelbarrow it home by herself, and she can turn it into delicious bread all by herself. No need to bother offering Hen a helping hand of any sort, thank you. She’s got it covered! But then comes Fox… and Fox loves to eat all kinds of tasty things. So when Pig, Horse, and Cow discover that Fox has paid Hen a visit, should they step in and offer assistance that Hen hasn’t asked for? Stephanie Shaw’s All by Myself (Peachtree) is a delectable social-emotional learning tale celebrating the strong-willed and independent, putting a quirky spin on the classic stories, Henny Penny and The Little Red Hen.
