Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Little Red Hen finds some grains of wheat but when she asks the cat, the dog and the goose to help her plant them, they are all too busy. When Little Red Hen has finally grown the wheat, harvested it, turned it into flour and baked the bread the others are only too willing to help her eat it - but will she let them? The gentle repetition and humorous second story unfolding in the illustrations make this a joyful retelling of the classic fable.
