Summary

This timeless story of having your cake (and eating it, too!) reimagined by acclaimed creator Paul Galdone. A classic fable for all young audiences--and a cautionary tale for lazy ones. Little Red Hen is a time-tested tale about how we reap what we sow. When the Little Red Hen asks a cat, dog, and mouse for help planting some wheat, she gets no takers: "'Not I!' said the cat. 'Not I!' said the dog. 'Not I!' said the mouse."They won't water, cut, or grind the wheat... or help bake a cake with it, either. So in the end, the Little Red Hen eats the cake all by herself as well!
