About this ebook
"The story's gentle surprises are sure to delight, as will the birds' happy reunion." — Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Toddlers and beginning readers will love joining in on the quest for a missing mother chicken in this sweet book by the beloved, award-winning author and illustrator that shows how appearances can be deceiving . . .
"Two little chicks play hide-and-seek with their mother. But though they find her easily enough on their first two tries, the game becomes more difficult; the shape of the comb on top of the hen's head turns out to be very like the petals of a flowering tree, the fur of a growling dog, and the rays of the rising sun . . . There's a nice balance of predictability and surprise in Gomi's narrative that should appeal to preschoolers." — The New York Times
