Customer Reviews

An old classic favorite...

I bought six of my favorite childhood books for my great-grandson..."Little Black Sambo", "The Three Billy Goats Gruff", "Henny Penny", "Chicken Little", "The Three Little Kittens", and "Classic Tales of Brer Rabbit". My great-grandie is 2-1/2 and I can't wait to read these wonderful stories to him.

Not the chicken little I grew up on

The book was great until I got to the end. It does not have the happy ending I remembered from my childhood. However, it closer to the original than the newest Chicken Little in Little Golden Books. The new version in Little Golden books has aliens and a story line unlike the one from my childhood.

Soft ending

The last page is a picture of the fox sucking a bone. No chickens. It just says the king was never told that the sky was falling. This edition leaves it to the adult reading the story to the toddler to explain what happened to the foolish chickens and their friends. Otherwise, it seems a reasonably standard edition of the traditional story. My 4-year old nephew enjoyed it.

Chicken Little

I read this book to my 20 month old and she loved it. Chicken Little is the first book she goes for when she wants to be read to. The illustrations keep her enthralled from start to finish and she loves to mimic the animal sounds as we go. This classic tale will live on forever in our home.
