  A tale of Little Red Hen who asks help from other animals in the farm to plant wheat and help in cutting and taking to the mill to make into flour. She does evrything on her own and gets the soft and fluffy bread. It is educational for children to understand that nothing can be got free and helping hands are always a must.

  This book is about a little red who wanted to make wheat and she wanted help but she didn’t have any help because the lazy cat, dog and rat didn’t want to help her make wheat at all. But then at the end of the book just because they didn’t help they still wanted some of her wheat and the hen said no because they should have helped her make some so the next time they helped her make some
  
  What I would use this book for is class is to show the kids that if you want something and you don't help with it then you wont get it. So pretty much you have to work for what you want and that it is not just going to come to you just like that.

  Cute book, enjoyed the inside-cover maplike drawing too.
  What I didn't like is the moral: so if your friends don't help you, you don't offer them your bread? In this retelling the hen could have said at the last station, that if you guys don't help me, don't come asking for a piece! Or at the very end she could have asked them "Why didn't you help me? It's not fair that I do all the work and you take credit for it!' and not let little readers know if she gave them some bread or not.

  This was my all out favourite as a child. I made my mother read it to me several times a day and soon knew it by heart

  Review: This book leaves children with the idea that you should always help your friends. I really like that animals are used in telling this story. The pictures are very vibrant and would keep the attention of young children.
  4) Uses in the classroom:
  -Identify major events in the story.
  -Have children think-pair-share about what might have happened if the hen’s friends helped her to plant the wheat or make the bread.
  -Have children help each other to plant some wheat and make bread.
