A companion book to Chicken Little: The Real and Totally True Tale. Chicken Little isn’t afraid of anything. Or is she? When she encounters the so-called Big Bad Wolf, she is terrified, but her fear is nothing compared to that of the rest of the flock who debate whether to fight or flight. The smart and scientific Chicken Little gets to know the wolf and realizes that he is nothing like the preconceptions of him and invites him to a “pot-cluck” so the other chickens can get to know him, as well. The message of inclusion and acceptance is delivered with humor and grace. Told almost entirely with the use of speech bubbles. Not quite up to the standards of the first book but an enjoyable story with a worthy message.
