  • Baker & Taylor
    High-spirited, loud, and independent from the moment they broke free from their shells and entered the world, Penny, Polly, and Molly do things their own way, but when the other animals and the farmer begin to complain, Mama Hen stands up for her rough-and-tumble chicks and let's them be just the way they were meant to be.

  • Houghton
    From the moment Penny, Polly, and Molly hatch from their eggs, the whole farm knows they are truly tough chicks. They wrestle worms, rope roosters, and are often found under the hood of the tractor. All the other animals and even the farmer himself tell Mama Hen to make her chicks good. "They are good!" Mama Hen replies. But could her chicks be too loud, too independent, and too tough? Lively language and bold illustrations capture all the fun and humor of this delightfully different farmyard romp that's also a resounding endorsement for letting girls be girls (even if they're loud and tough and like to play with tractors.)
