Little Chick Amy Hest First edition

The creators of the New York Times bestselling KISS GOOD NIGHT offer a trio of gentle tales about a special intergenerational bond.

Little Chick may be a good and patient gardener, as Old-Auntie observes, but what if you simply can?t wait for your carrot to grow tall? What if you skip like a pro but still can?t lift your kite in the air? Or if you?re a really good stretcher but can?t reach your favorite star? With affection and humor, Amy Hest offers three vignettes about a curious chick and a loving auntie who knows how to soften disappointments by keeping the spark of wonder alive. And the incomparable Anita Jeram renders Little Chick?s gestures and movements with a mastery that captures the spirit of every young child.
