Book Description

Publication Date: 1 Mar 2012

Busy Hen has five little chicks to look after while making sure number six - still an egg- stays warm. The last thing she needs is hairy, scary Fox sniffing about. She is frantic when the other birds warn her that her chicks are in danger, but her five little chicks are a lot braver than she realises!

The rollicking rhythmic text is rammed with catchy refrains that beg to be shouted out. Children will love the repeated action words and thinking of new ways to act them out.

Review

"Dramatic and funny . . . it's a winner for children aged 2+" (Amanda Craig The Times 20120331)

"This charming, heart-warming tale will delight children, as it is full of bright artwork telling us about the funny, energy-fuelled story of six courageous chicks" (South Wales Evening Post 20120323)

"Jez Alborough gives Chick Lit a good name . . . The book has a bright, jolly and yet predatory feel. The chicks are intensely yellow and the fox has fearsome green eyes - dreaming of a snappy Easter" (Kate Kellaway Guardian 20120402)

"Beautiful illustrations and a bouncy, rhyming text" (Sarah Kingsford Sunday Express 20120408)

"This beautifully illustrated, rhyming tale uses repetition of words and movements that small children will love to mimic" (Booktrust )

Book Description

A lovely, heart-warming tale of six courageous chicks from the multi-million-selling Jez Alborough. The rhythmic, rhyming text begs to be read aloud.

4.0 out of 5 stars Six little chicks 7 Mar 2012
By Sookie B
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
A lovely picture story book for our toddler aged 3, although it would suit a younger child there is a bad fox in it. It is a story of a mother hen always looking after her 5 x chicks while still sitting on an unhatched egg. The chicks are out to play and the nervous hen is on the look out for the bad fox. There are good clear and colourful pitures. Repetitive words for ease of story telling and for a child to join in. When the big bad fox pocks his nose into the hut he gets his come-up-ance.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Favorite. Very Engaging 15 Mar 2013
By B J DAVIS
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this for my 3 year old granddaughter and she loves it. She holds her breath before we turn each page enthralled to find out what happens next and she joins in with the rhymes. We have to read it again and again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quirky and fun for your little ones 30 Mar 2012
By Gareth Wilson - Falcata Times Blog TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Hardcover
Six Little Chicks, some farm animals and a crafty fox in this wonderful story by Jez Alborough. It has some wonderful rhyming language, some great refrains and of course illustrations that match the storytelling style beautifully. Add to this some smart thinking, different animals banding together and a wonderful outcome all in, and this is a story that many people will enjoy reading time and again to their children. Don't be surprised if this becomes a firm favourite and of course remember to encourage your Young Reader to join in to get the most from it.
