Rosie’s Walk by Pat Hutchins is a whimsical tale of a little red hen who decided to take a walk one day. Unbeknownst to Rosie, a sly fox is following her on her journey. Unfortunately for the fox, following Rosie leads to one disaster after another!

Will Rosie make it back home safely? Will the fox?

Currently there are no available copies of this at Amazon, so you will have to find a copy of it at your local library or perhaps a used bookstore.
