This one-of-a-kind book clucks and lays eggs! Read the story, then push Mama Hen's tail to start the sound chip, and out come three little egg-shaped board books. Replace the eggs, and Mama Hen lays them again. Four books in one incredible package!

Mother Hen is a delightful story of a hen that lives on a farm. Each time she lays her eggs they are taken away and sold. She gets tired of losing her eggs and chicks and decided to find a way to protect her eggs. Mother Hen came up with a great plan to hide her eggs until they are hatched. Because she went about it in such a smart way, the farmer decided to let her keep her chicks. She and her chicks laid many eggs that the farmer could sell. There is a moral to the story for children and adults.

Three independent chicks who dare to be different are reprimanded by the other barnyard residents for not being quiet and docile, until the smart, fearless trio takes on a runaway tractor.
