This is a cute little story, but I had a couple of problems with it. She did appreciate the Hen trying to warn the character about what was going to happen in the story and changing it. He thought the dad was funny and he enjoyed that the Hen wore down the dad. The nephew thought the story was funny and he did see himself a little in the story, which made him chuckle. Lots of color and textures in the artwork. It’s better to just read more in the series. I do find that the nephew is better with new stories because stories he knows, he is fidgety and his attention wanders. The father in this story goes through 3 quick stories and the Hen changes or interrupts all of them. Unless it’s a slow biography story that bores them to sleep, but still, a question will creep up. If it’s a good story, they get involved and they have to interrupt the story to ask a question or make a comment. Both, the nephew and the niece, but mostly the nephew have this issue. A father is trying to read the little Hen a bedtime story, which is something I do too, and the little Hen keeps interrupting the story because she knows it. This story is cute and it reminds me of the nephew.
