Description
Based on the nursery rhyme "Five Little Ducks," this cheerful lift-the-flap book is perfect for sharing at springtime. Five little chicks went out one day,
over the hills and far away . . .
Mama Hen said, "Hurry back to me!"
Now how many chicks can you see?
Join this fluffy little family on a beautiful walk through the countryside. There's so much to see as Mama Hen and her brood wind through a flowery meadow, a bluebell wood, a field full of lambs, and a busy farmyard. Along the way, they meet all kinds of baby animals and their parents. But wait--the chicks are disappearing one by one. Whatever could they be up to? Lift the flaps to find the chicks and discover a fantastic surprise ending.
