ABOUT THE
BOOK:
Little Meg finds the outside world a bit too loud and far too scary! So,
she’s going to stay inside her safe white shell, thank you very much. But then
the Howl breaks into the barn and steals Mother Hen! What is she supposed to
do, still holed up in that egg of hers? She can’t run and she certainly can’t
fly. Well, never get between a chick and her momma, cause this little bird’s
got a can-do spirit and a whole lot of courage that she didn’t know she had
before!
A tale of self discovery that speaks to all children’s fears of the
unknown, Ms. Borg delivers a great read-aloud resource for parents and teachers
alike. With an onomatopoeic construction that gives life to the story and
encourages children to participate through repetition of words, noises, and
actions, MEG THE EGG is the perfect story for beginning readers.
