"Little Red Henry's family treats him like a baby. They dress him. They feed him. They try to do everything for him. But he's not really a baby anymore. This makes his family nervous, at first. As they see that he is fine on his own, they discover time to do the things they love. But will things swing too far in the other direction? Even Little Red Henry wants to be at the center of attention sometimes. In this charming reworking of the classic tale of the Little Red Hen, author Linda Urban and illustrator Madeline Valentine gently and humorously depict a family trying to find a middle ground between coddling their youngest member and giving him room to grow."--dust jacket.

Little Red Henry submitted by ejmarcash on August 4, 2016, 8:41am My children loved this book because it's very similar to how the baby in our family is treated. They thought it was hilarious when I changed the names of the siblings to their own names.
