Simple,* but deeply moving. I look forward to reading this book again as a mother.
*Simple on the surface only, like many fables, I think.

Really loved this book. I think it's the kinda book that will be universally loved, and a great ending too.

Ein wirklich durch und durch außergewöhnliches Buch!

Das hier ist ein etwas anderes Buch, denn der Protagonist ist ein Huhn - Sprosse um genau zu sein und ja, unser Huhn hat sich selbst benannt. Für mich ist es ein Meisterwerk! Zwar eine echt seltsame und ungewöhnliche Geschichte und es ist komisch aus der Sichtweise eines Huhns zu lesen, aber ich fand das dünne Büchlein mit den wenigen, aber dafür ausdrucksstarken, Illustrationen echt toll!

Irgendwie geht es um eine ignorante Gesellschaft, eine zerrüttete Familie, Gefahren und darum, wie wichtig eine loyale Freundschaft ist. Es ist ein wirklich durch und durch außergewöhnliches Buch!

This story has a nickname in English -- The Korean Charlotte's Web. I think it is a good to make parallels between the stories. Both involve a sense of longing to belong, love, loss, an adopted family, and self sacrifice. I teared up at the end, for sure. This edition has beautiful minimalistic illustrations at the start of each chapter.
