Interrupting Chicken

Have you ever tried to read a story to your children, but they kept interrupting you with questions?

You know exactly how Papa Chicken feels in David Ezra Stein’s delightful picture book Interrupting Chicken.

The little red chicken is so excited about the storyline of the book he’s listening to that she interrupts Papa Chicken and finishes the story to save the characters from all sorts of dangers.

You can imagine Papa’s exasperation.

Finally, Papa suggests that the little red chicken tells HIM a story.

The little red chicken complies, and…

But I’m not going to ruin the ending!

Recommended for ages 3 and up.
