Henrietta and the Golden Eggs


This book was written by Hanna Johansen. It was published in Switzerland and then translated to English by John Barrett.

This book is about a little hen with big dreams. She lives in a huge chicken house with 3,333 other chickens. She tells the bigger chickens that when she is old enough she is going to lay golden eggs. While she is small she learns to sing, to fly, and to swim in efforts to pass the time until she is big enough to lay her first egg. The other hens are not sure what to expect when Henrietta gets big enough to lay eggs! This was a simple story but very enjoyable to read!
