About The Book

Hattie the Hen spots danger -- but the goose and the pig and the sheep and the horse and the cow don't seem to care!
Young children will enjoy happy shivers of anticipation as this cumulative tale builds, and they'll be delighted by the final surprise, when everyone sees that what Hattie has been saying is true!
