Overview
Everyone on MacDonald's Farm is excited! Mother Chicken has laid three fine eggs with great hopes for each unique one when they finally hatch! A brown egg with hard bumps and a white egg with black spots have much to overcome to be able to break through and hatch out of their shell. The warmth Mother Chicken provides, as she tenderly cares for her eggs on the nest, strengthens them to break free. They can now grow into greater things with all the gifts Farmer MacDonald showers upon them. Everyone celebrates with much fanfare and a party as the new chicks take their useful place on the farm. However, the smooth egg, whose shell should have been easiest to break through, refuses to budge. He "baulks" at the idea of moving beyond his comfort zone. Or, is it a prison? Whatever it is that he clings to inside his shell, it is not sufficient to sustain him in a lasting and fruitful manner. Everyone on the farm is grieved with shock and awe that a chick full of promise like his siblings would choose to remain hidden away from a more abundant life, provision and purpose.What are the dire consequences of his choice? Will this one foolish egg, clinging to what little he knows in his shell, go bad or come to his senses? Crafted as an entertaining read aloud with repetitive rhymes for vocal variety and humorous characters, the large format of this book makes it a perfect selection for performance storytelling in a living room or classroom. The illustrations make the text "pop" with engaging charm.
