Good Morning, Chick

"An ingenious barnyard story, brief but well-paced, simple but colorful."--Booklist. "The bright pictures and the wealth of animal sounds and actions make it a natural for the very youngest."--School Library Journal.How many times I read this book to my children! The very youngest child can understand the story line and appreciate the repetetive text (which you can edit easily for your own sanity, if necessary). We are introduced to the little chick, his mother, and his home. Danger enters the chick's world in the form of a black, hissing cat, but Mom shields the chick with her big brown wing, and clucks the cat out of the picture. The chick meets a big frog and even falls into the pond and gets wet -- which little children think is terrifically funny. The bright, colorful pictures appeal to the very young and are easy on the adult eye. It doesn't sound like much, but it ends up being a very rich, warm experience to share this book with a little one. My 13 year old saw it today, and went through it with a bg grin on his face; which is why I checked to see if it was still in print. Thankfully, you can enjoy it with children you love, too.

Loved this book 20+ years ago when my sister gave it to my children one Christmas. The cover and first pages had been lost so I ordered another from Amazon. It was used but in like new condition. My grandson is in love with it now..

Was great for my children and 30 years later for my grandchildren. No need to really read...talk your way through the book for little ones. Then neither one of you is bored. Where is the chick? How many? etc.

My children always loved this book when they were small.

This is my son's favorite book (he's 1). He loves making all the sounds that the animals in the story make. If you're looking for a quick read for a little one, this is it.

I remembered this book from when I was little and loved it then and had to get it for my daughter. I am so glad I was able to get it. It's a cute book about a chick being born and discovering the farm. It brings back good memories of childhood.

thank you

Our Grandbabies love this book!!

A fun book for children,fascinating story x

This was a lovely, colourful picture story book. Loved the story.

I bought this book 31 years ago for my son, who loved it. We knew it off by heart within weeks and still remember it today. I have given my son his old copy, and bought this brand new one for my first grandchild, who I hope will love it as much as he did. The pictures are clear and colourful, the repetition in the text is just right for very small children and it is a very sweet story. A lovely book.

I have read this in the nursery every Easter for years and my old copy had juice spilled on it and the pages stuck together. I was so happy to find another copy and pass the love of the story to my colleagues and the new children.

I had a copy of this book 30years ago and my children loved it. I was delighted to find it was still in print to get a copy for my first Grandchild.
