*Chicken Little  Rebecca and Ed Emberly 

Chicken Little is another variation of the traditional tale of Henny Penny.  This is about a young chicken who gets hit in the head and believes that the sky is falling and that he must tell the king.   On his journey he runs into Turkey Lurkey, Lucy Goosey, and the mean awful Foxy Loxy, who wants to eat the gang.  Foxy Loxy tricks Chicken Little, Turkey Lurkey, and Lucy Goosey into taking a short cut, which leads right to his lair.  He is luring them there in order to eat them.  They follow Foxy not thinking it is a trap, and he eats them, except for Chicken Little who gets away, and forgets to tell the king the sky is falling.   This story is great for all children of all ages, and the illustrations in the book are geared toward young children, so first grade and up is ideal.
