Most people know the tale of "The Little Red Hen", a story of animals who wanted to reap the benefits of the reward although they did none of the work. That story ends with the hen, who had done everything herself, smugly denying them that privilege while enjoying her freshly baked bread alone.Sadly, if you stopped there, you only know half of the story. In reality, the hen finally relented, allowing those selfish animals to share the reward in exchange for heartfelt promises of help the following year, and all was good.Until the next year, when some of the animals still didn't help but counted on the hen to be a doormat two years in a row.The Aubergine Hen is a tale of friendship, second chances, and what can happen when a nice hen is finally pushed too far.
