The Singing Chick

by Victoria Stenmark, Randy Cecil (Illustrator)

One day, an egg rolls into the forest. It hatches, and out pops a bright yellow chick. The chick is so happy to be alive that he starts singing and doesn't stop, even when a fox swallows him up. But then the fox can't stop singing, so a wolf eats him up. And the wolf can't stop singing, so a bear eats him up. Full of madcap humor that aims straight for a preschooler's funny bone, this is a happily-ever-after story that kids won't be able to stop singing about.

This book is ok, but it could scare some small children because each animal eats the other. Read aloud to group only if you know it won't scare your kiddos.

Love the song. Power of music. Good fun, ending too predictable.

When you read this book you hsve to sing the sing, have three different voices for the three animals, and make the gulp noise! This is such a fun, humorous read.
