- Baker & Taylor
Old-Auntie hen encourages and nurtures Little Chick in three stories about a carrot, a kite, and a starry night. - Baker & Taylor
Little Chick wants her carrot to grow big, her kite to fly, and her special star to come close enough that she can catch it, but things do not happen the way that she wants them to. - Baker & Taylor
Disappointed by not being able to reach to the stars when she stretches or patient enough to wait for the carrot to grow, Little Chick is given loving and reassuring advice from her Old Auntie who instructs her on the joy of always having hope. - Baker & Taylor
Old Auntie encourages and nurtures Little Chick in three stories about a carrot, a kite, and a starry night. - Random House, Inc.
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 canât wait for your carrot to grow tall? What if you skip like a pro but still canât lift your kite in the air? Or if youâre a really good stretcher but canât 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 Chickâs gestures and movements with a mastery that captures the spirit of every young child.
