Part of the Interrupting Chicken series
A little chicken's quest for cookies disrupts nursery rhymes. Will she succeed?
The little red chicken is determined to have cookies for breakfast, much to Papa's dismay. As she hilariously inserts herself into nursery rhymes, chaos ensues. Can her antics convince Papa, or does he have a sweeter plan in mind? Dive into this playful tale where the early bird might just get the cookie!
In her latest star turn, the little red chicken from the Caldecott Honor Book Interrupting Chicken is hungry–and sillier than ever. It’s bright and early on a Saturday morning, and the little red chicken wants cookies for breakfast. What better way to persuade Papa than by jarring him awake and gleefully interjecting cookies–and herself!–into every nursery rhyme they read together? Though the Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe heartily endorses the little red chicken’s plan, Papa has his own idea for a sweet breakfast for his determined daughter. Featuring the same riotous charm and bright, bold art as Interrupting Chicken and Interrupting Chicken and the Elephant of Surprise, David Ezra Stein’s third installment will have any fan with a sweet tooth and a love of meta rhyme clamoring to find out: will the early bird get the cookie?
