A cute little story that any mother could tell her child, about how that mother was once a baby who grew up to be a mother herself.

I am unsure what the purpose is for Broody Hen to lay eggs for the other animals.

A tame read but some great illustrations and great for bedtime.

Kindof ... tautological? And I really don't like how the chicken lays eggs for humans and a raccoon (what the?), but otherwise this is a gentle story with lovely illustrations. Marzi liked it, too, and wanted to make sure that the mama hen was still with the little chick at the end.
