Hannah the hen spends a whole day on the farm looking for a quiet place to lay her eggs, so that she can have chicks of her own. The pigs grunt too loudly, the lambs are too playful, the cows are too clumsy... Will Hannah ever find a nice quiet place where her eggs will be safe?
A charming board book for very young children, which introduces farmyard animals and their characteristics. With lively illustrations in a classic style.
Reviews
"These are delightful books for the youngest readers to practise talking about the pictures and page turning and for emergent readers to 'have a go', supported by an adult."
--Martine Horvath, EYE: Early Years Educator, April 2011.
"A charming story perfect for springtime."
--Creative Steps, Spring 2011.
"This is a charming board book with lovely illustrations to share with a very young child. Farmyard animals are introduced in traditional scenes of farmyard tales with a rural Dutch look to them."
-- Morag Charlwood, Armadillo, March 2011.
'The book is beautifully illustrated and will make a nice addition to any bookshelf.'
-- Tammy Dolling, March 2011
