From the collection at Project Gutenberg, this is an ebook edition of The Little Red Hen, originally published in 1918.
The Little Red is a perfect book to build an early November preschool or early grades theme around – the focus is on helpfulness, there is an opportunity for breadbaking, and the harvest theme begun earlier in the fall can follow along nicely.
Maya and I are reading The Little Red Hen now. I’ll be adding some of our activities and links to other projects using this book next week.
Download your copy of this early version of The Little Red Hen.
As an added bonus, in addition to the gorgeous illustrations that are found in children’s books of this era, some of the pictures are black and while line drawings, perfect for coloring!
