This engaging book for preschoolers is an English translation of a “much ado about nothing” cumulative-repetitive nursery rhyme about how a little evil can go a long way, but a little good goes even further. Linked in a chain of archetypal enmities are objects, people, and animals, all turning a deaf ear to Hen’s commanding attitude and a blind eye to her insignificant dirty little foot. It isn’t until the last character’s notorious loyalty triggers a domino-effect chain reaction that Hen finally gets the satisfaction she seeks.Recommended to read with When Hen Was on Her Way to Market: A Folktale-Inspired Story of Manners
